Looming Ahead


I have recently acquired the two Knifty Knitter sets and I have designed a hat that is reversible. One way looks like a Mandarin and the other looks like a ski cap. It has been fun making these hats. I am usually a technique collector and not a designer at all, but this hat just kind of happened in my head. Mainly, because I don't like the real bunchy finish at the top when you take the piece off the loom with the needle and yarn and the curling up of the brim. Consequently, I found a way to eliminate these two unwanted conditions. I haven't taken a picture of the hat inside out yet but it is coming soon.
