So, I have the flu. And on Sunday I could do little else but sit, and knit. And watch Sci-Fi. I bought these BWM Rustic 8Ply yarns last year, when I was planning to knit N a stripy vest. But then Bossman declared that Vests Are Gay, so that idea got shelved. And the Koolhaas I made N last year got worn, and worn to death, so he needed a new beanie.
Brooklyn Tweed came to the rescue again!
Great easy, quick, free pattern. A tick in every box, really. Truth be told, you CAN treat Rustic 8ply like a worsted weight. But also, this hat is ALMOST a little big. I say that, but N prefers his beanies to cover his ears and neck, so it’s worked out well. Next time I would be tempted to go down a needle size.
Sticks: 4.5 and 5 mm
BWM Rustic 8ply in Earth, Russet and Delta.
Today, the Flu has moved south to my chest, so I think some more Sci-Fi and a new project might be prescribed..
