This week's podcast is a little shorter than usual, but I did manage to squeeze it in between all the Etsy Shop fun I've been creating!
I talk about a whole bunch of projects I've been working on, some for Christmas gifts, and some for the Indie Design Gift-a-Long:
One the needles:
3-in-1 Boots
In Time Out:
Burgeoning Slippers
Finished:
Neon Hat
Hannah Hat
Crisp Apple Strudel Mittens
An Unnamed Cabled Hat (which will eventually be a published pattern)...sorry, no project or pattern page to link to yet for this one!
World War G{loves}
And I show off my newest hat release, the Plank & Groove Hat. This is a fantastic dk-weight hat that is perfect for beginners (or anyone who wants an easy knit). There are no increases or decreases used to shape the crown! And it's fantastic for using with self-striping yarn because the stitch count never changes from one row to the next. It's a versatile knit that comes in five different sizes and can be worn unfolded as a slouchy hat, or with the brim turned up as a fitted beanie. It's a great unisex design that would probably work for someone on your list of "knit-worthy" holiday gift recipients!
The Plank & Groove Hat is available as an individual pattern download on Ravelry, and also as part of a 4-hat eBook called #SquadHats!
