The stitches roll through this rich cable pattern like the sun
peeking from behind clouds on a rough and choppy day on
the water. Worked in a nice chunky yarn that lets the cables
pop to the surface, this hat is a fun way to play with texture
and stitches.

Die Maschen dieses Musters tauchen auf und unter wie die
Sonne, die an einem rauhen Tag durch die Wolken bricht und
sich in den Wellen reflektiert.
Die Mütze, gestrickt aus einer dicken, flauschigen Wolle, ist
eine Spielerei von Maschen und Struktur, in der das Zopfmuster
wie in Wellen an die Oberfläche gehoben wird.

Sur ce bonnet, les mailles roulent et rebondissent, comme les éclats
de soleil qui se reflètent sur la mer en perçant les nuages. Ces torsades
simples, travaillées en laine épaisse, sont une amusante façon
de créer de la texture.
Il est proposé en deux tailles, moyen et (large).

Cloches are particularly sweet hats, framing short do’s and pushing longer tresses forward. The Sima Cloche pairs cleverly structured slipped stitches with short row construction to create an upturned decorative rim. The mosaic pattern is worked with only one color at a time, a deceptively simple technique with classical appeal.

The first colder nights of early fall bring with it cozy ideas of fair-isle knits and Scandinavian Ski sweaters to keep you toasty when the real cold gets here. But I am usually in ‘winter denial ‘until much later and then often around the darker times of the year, I am longing for the lazy, warm days of late summer with the buzzing of bees in the air. What to do? I was in no way ready to knit snowflakes! Sitting by the local creek one afternoon, soaking up some late summer sun, pondering this dilemma, I watched the dragonflies dart to and fro in the sparkling light, and the perfect idea came to me: A colorful double knit hat, with dragonflies to represent summer days, worked in jewel tones of dragonflies, sunshine and sparkling water-drops, colors which would make me happy and a hat that would keep me warm and remind me all winter long that longer days are right around the corner!
The name Odonata (Odonata is an order of insects, encompassing dragonflies and damselflies.) to me has a beautiful ring to it and makes me think ‘Ode to summer’ which is what this hat truly is!

[/x_text][x_text]

Die ersten kalten Herbstnächte bringen Gedanken an skandinavische Skipullover und bunte ‘Fair-Isle’ Schneeflocken. Aber meist bin ich noch gar nicht in Winterstimmung und dann, in den kalten, dunklen Nächten, sehne ich mich nach den trägen, warmen Tagen des Spätsommers mit dem Summen der Bienen in der milden Luft.
Was nun? Schneeflockenmuster gehen mir im Herbst noch ganz gegen den Strich. Aber eine farbenfrohe Doppelstrick-Mütze mit Libellen als Motiv, dafür könnte ich mich schon mehr begeistern.
In bunten Farbtönen als Erinnerung an Sommertage, glänzende Wassertropfen und Spaziergänge am Bachufer. Eine Mütze, die warm hält und Farben, die mich den ganzen Winter lang glücklich machen und daran erinnern, dass die warme Zeit gerade nur noch ein paar Monate entfernt ist!
Odonata (Odonata ist eine Ordnung im Insektenreich, zu der Libellen und Wasserjungfern gehören) hat für mich einen schönen Klang, und ich denke immer ‘Ode an den Sommer’ und das passt ja eigentlich genau für diese Mütze!

In dark green with red buttons it says ‘tis the season’ like nothing else. It’s also something Holly Golightly might have worn on cold days, peeking in the windows at Tiffany’s as the shape is somewhat of a cross between a hat and a cloche with a little bit of bonnet mixed in.

Super quick and cozy in the alpaca/wool blend, this hat works up in no time in any worsted or light worsted weight yarns. You can make one, maybe even two in an evening!

The bottom edge ribbing is worked flat in two pieces, then joined in the round and the rest of the hat is worked in one piece.

This hat is named for the hedgerow bounty we would bring home from our weekend excursions. My Mom would cook the berries into a delicious jam that could sparkle just as red as the raspberries beckoning between the green leaves, or be dark and jewel toned when there were more blackberries in the mix.

Designed to match the Hedgerow Jam cowl, it uses the same design elements but uses different techniques.

Worked in stranded color, the hat becomes nice and dense and is sure to keep your head toasty.

Great first stranded color project!

Rosy & Grey was inspired by a cold November morning, where before the sun comes up fully, the world is rendered in shades of gray and rose. Melancholy and Beauty all wrapped up into one! And just like the fog sometimes can float up and swirl down, the pattern swirls on the finished hat!

Simple and easy to make, warm but not overly bulky, it’s the perfect hat for those days when you just need a little more warmth but aren’t ready to give up on your style. Worked in the round with an easy 2 color pattern, you can make one of these in an afternoon!

You can choose which way to wear your hat, flipping the rim up for a shorter cap or leaving it as is for more coverage.
