If you are still interested you can order via my etsy site, http://www.etsy.com/shop/RussetLodgeKnits or via the Paypal menus at the top right of the page. <br /><br />The other option is if you know a knitter (or if you knit yourself), you can purchase the pattern for $5 and have them knit it for you. It is about 4 hours of relatively simple knitting (but I'm a very speedy knitter) plus the time needed to felt and dry the finished product (typically a couple of days). The pattern is available above or via Etsy as well.Diane Donaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15747934765004704310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6458187248391021837.post-47434684375970966302012-06-17T01:45:41.764-07:002012-06-17T01:45:41.764-07:00Are you still making these?

I usually use knitpicks Wool of the Andes (available at www.knitpicks.com) but Cascade 220 is also a good one. The pattern doesn't have a gauge listed, but before felting worsted weight and size 8 needles usually knits up to about 6 stitches per inch. I chose not to recommend a gauge because it really doesn't matter much after it felts up. I give measurements for the hat before and after felting, so I'm sure you could figure the gauge from that.<BR/><BR/>Happy knitting!Dianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09085418251299583271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6458187248391021837.post-9482095429641235752008-01-23T20:50:00.000-08:002008-01-23T20:50:00.000-08:00Hello.
