This pattern (along with most of my earlier work) was retired in the summer of 2022. However, it may be available for a few days once or twice a year. Read on for details!
In the summer of 2022, I realized that maintaining a back catalog of hundreds of patterns was kind of overwhelming. I couldn’t do it and still release new things. So I took my old patterns down so I could keep doing new work.
Since then, a handful of my favorites have come back, and lovely new things have come out. But the vast majority of the old patterns are retired and will no longer be generally available.
However, enough folks have asked about some old favorites that I’m planning to make many of the retired patterns available for a few days once or twice a year (most likely in late spring and then again in the fall around Thanksgiving).
- If you see the buy buttons on this page, you’ve caught it on one of the days it’s available, and you’re welcome to grab it!
- If you don’t see the buy buttons on this page, then it’s not currently available.
- If you want to hear when the retired patterns will be available, subscribe to the mailing list or patreon, or keep an eye on my instagram.
(Don’t worry, if you have a code from a book or kit, it will still work! Just follow the instructions you were given with the code and you’ll still be able to download the pattern.)
Did you ever have such a good time with a project that you were a little sad when it was done? Well that’s exactly what happened with these hats! I had so much fun with the first one that I didn’t want to stop. So I knit another…then another…then one more, each using the same beautiful technique. Even after all that, I still wasn’t ready to be done.
So I did the only reasonable thing. I brought the hat patterns that started my obsession, an introduction to the technique they share, and variations on each of the pattern stitches together to create the little collection you’re seeing now.
It’s part pattern book, part technique book, and part stitch dictionary. With it as your guide, you’ll be able to make these amazing hats (plus matching cowls), explore the stitch variations included here, or design amazing stitches of your own.
I suspect you’re going to have just as much fun as I did!
