As some people noticed, the new Knitty came out this past Tuesday and I have a pattern in it. What a thrill! This is my double knit Weeping Willow hat:
It takes just two 50g skeins of DK weight yarn in whatever colours you fancy. I did a regular cast on with ribbing on one hat (easy version) and a tubular cast on on the other hat (harder version). Sarah suggested doing the tubular cast on & I agree that it does make a nice brim.
I don’t know exactly what made me do this hat, but I doodled a chart, played around with it a bit, and about 2 weeks later I had a couple of hats. I think I’ll have to knit another one for me now, and I’ve got just the yarn in the stash…
Big thanks go out to Jenn, Louise & my daughter Z. for modelling the hats.
Love it! and congrats!
Congratulations, Nat! Such a cute hat! Well done!
Love that hat!
Can I put in an order for Christmas?? x x
