Seafarer’s Beanie, pattern preview
As I mentioned in my previous post, I participated in the Ravelympics, aka the fiber olympics on Ravelry. I decided to make my challenge be to design a new hat pattern for CAS that folks could use during Knit 4 Lent this year. I knew I wanted to make a pattern that was a little more challenging. We already have so many patterns for beginners.
I tried knit and purl patterns, I tried cables, I tried colorwork, but nothing really clicked. Finally I decided the best pattern would be one that coordinates with our Seafarer’s Scarf. I had my heart set on a folded brim, and from there the hat seemed to design itself. I will be publishing this pattern in our upcoming newsletter and should have the pdf up tomorrow, but for now, enjoy a picture. I took it myself, so please forgive the close up.
