While knitting and watching “Cinderella” with my kids I
have fallen in love with my Japanese Stitch Bible by
Hitomi Shida, translated by Gayle Roehm. The way the
stitches cross and twist. The ornate and elegant
designs. Learning new techniques. My favorite way to
combine these elements is in smaller projects, like this
hat. Whether you take a few minutes to knit a couple
rows or get hooked and have to knit just one more row
you’ll end up with a hat fit for a ball.
