Circe
This Hat is named for Circe, an enchantress from Greek legend who transformed all who came to her island. The wide panels of Circe narrow as the colourwork stretches towards its crown, creating the illusion of change and transformation.
Each Hat in the Imperceptions collection is knitted bottom-up and in the round. The ideal yarn for these Hats is 4-ply or light sportweight, in a multi-plied fibre with some natural give, such as merino. The illusions look their best in two high-contrast colours.
The patterns in Imperceptions are provided in both written and charted format, and are graded through gauge. Two sizes are included in each pattern, and further help for grading with different yarns and needle sizes is available on the Woolly Wormhead forum.
Available as a single pattern or as part of the Imperceptions collection.
Diese Mütze wurde nach Kirke benannt, einer Zauberin der griechischen Mythologie, die alle Besucher der von ihr bewohnten Insel verzaubert. Die breiten Keilabschnitte der Mütze verjüngen sich, während das Farbstrickmuster zum Oberkopf hin strebt, wodurch die Illusion von Verwandlung und Wechsel entsteht.
Alle Mützen der „Imperceptions“-Kollektion werden von unten nach oben in Runden gestrickt. Am besten dafür geeignet sind verzwirnte Garne mit natürlicher Elastizität, wie z.B. Merinowolle, in 4-fdg bzw 6-fdg Sockenwollstärke. Die Illusionsstrickmuster kommen am vorteilhaftesten in zwei stark kontrastierenden Farben zur Geltung.
Sämtliche Anleitungen der „Imperceptions“-Serie enthalten sowohl Strickschriften als auch reihenweise ausgeschriebene Anweisungen, die Mützen lassen sich durch unterschiedliche Strickfestigkeit in der Größe variieren. Jede der Anleitungen enthält Berechnungen für zwei verschiedene Größen; weitere Hilfestellung für abweichende Garn- und Nadelstärken gibt es im Woolly Wormhead-Forum.
Erhältlich als Einzelanleitung oder im Rahmen der „Imperceptions“-Kollektion.
