September 2026 update: Heather Lavender Hat
Heather Lavender Hat 2026 update
September 2026 update:
I have change the pattern some more and changed the colors so that the band toward the bottom shows up better. I like it so far much more than the first one. This will be a pattern of the Month sometime.
Picture below shows how long it's gotten and I have started the decrease rounds but I really don't like the variegated yarn I picked out because you just can't see the pattering on the first couple of rows.
I started a new ski hat for my niece Heather, she loves hats. I will be posting as I work this . The ribbing is a new ribbing I made up using different stitches just because I liked them. Below is a picture of the start of it, and I made a chart also. The chart part does not show up well here. I will be changing colors in the next one I make for this pattern
