I enjoyed my recent visit to your knitting room. Talk about knitter's sanctuary! And, on the living room couch, piles of all different hand knitted socks.

I figured it out via youtube videos, so that was lucky. I guess what I am saying is that the pattern should be written for everyone, including those of us who have never knitted a hat before (like me). Otherwise, great hat, super cute.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6458187248391021837.post-320336986476492032012-11-01T22:55:00.900-07:002012-11-01T22:55:00.900-07:00I love those!I love those!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14241054446275512429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6458187248391021837.post-24080755205502177172012-08-30T06:26:46.501-07:002012-08-30T06:26:46.501-07:00It's hard to see, but the darker of the two st...It's hard to see, but the darker of the two stripes is a deep plum/purple.

This hat is really forgiving in terms of stretch, the main adjustment I make when I do these is how long I make them.

You said that the hat measurement is 21", but I'm a little confused on what measurement this is. Is this around the head from the straight back from the forehead and around? Or is it from the forehead down over the ears to the base of the skull and back? The friend I have in mind has a small head, so I need to see how much adjusting it needs, if any!

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?
