Gomphidius Violet
This pattern has been discontinued but you will always have access to any pattern you have purchased. We always recommend that you store your patterns off-site as well as in your Ravelry library.
Both the Gomphidius Violet and Gomphidius Swath patterns are included.
Knit in the round, top down, this tam begins on double pointed needles and later switches to a circular needle. A very quick-to-knit design using only knit and purl stitches, the predictable repeat pattern creates a crown of swirling triangle wedges. The rate of increase creates an impish pointy tip at the crown; two options are given for the ribbing: Staggered Rib (shown above) and Bamboo Stitch (shown in Gomphidius Swath sample). Two bind off options are also included. There are no seams and only 2 ends to weave in!
