This pattern is lovely and the hat is quite tight-fitting so its warm and cosy. But you need at least 60 stitches or possibly more, and quite a few extra rows for the length. I used a chunky yarn which came out beautifully.
Love this pattern! Made it with one 50g ball of Twilley's Freedom on 8mm needles. Only took me a few hours and looks great, thanks : )
Is this pattern supposed to be made with regular needles and stitch up at the edges or with double pointed needles knitted in a circle?
I agree with the commenter about the length of the hat. I love the stitch but it was much too short and I am extending it to be probably about 30 rows before the decrease pattern. Without the extension it barely covered the top of my head! Otherwise, I love the stitch and how easy but elegant it looks when completed.
this is soo beutiful but what type of yarn over are you supposed to do purl,knit,or purl knit yarn over?
Fast, easy, fun project. WAAYYYYYYYY too small, though. Needs more rows of the lace work and it needs extra stitches. I have a very small head and I couldn't fit it. Making it again, this time, with some modifications. I think I'll try 25-30 rows of the lace work.
Pretty!!!
I love it! It has a very modern and fashion forward look. The colours scream fashionista! Can't wait to make it myself!
i love this pattern!!! cute but still VERY stylish! thank u!
I can't wait to try this hat!!!
Great pattern although 42 stitches was tiny on me. Had to make it about half as big again
this is sooo cute!! i definitely am going to make this right now!! It makes a cute present too!!! can you put a different shape on like a butterfly?
it looks professional!!
