The Kuebel Hat

I finally did it! This is my first pattern I offer for sale. It's called the Kuebel hat, and I love it!

 

I originally made this hat for my husband, who is the prime example of people
who cannot wear a woolen hat longer than 10 minutes before it starts to itch
them. He also gets cold easily, so if I were to make him a hat, it would need to be
warm. So I had this idea of a two-layer hat, where the inside would be soft and
non-itchy and the outside really warm and covering the ears. I'm really bad at
double knitting, so I decided to knit two hats separately. But I also hate seaming,
so I knit the hats one at a time, but using the same cast-on edge. Behold the
Kuebel hat was born!

 

I finally put up an About page - now you can read a bit on who I am, what I do and what this blog is about. Please feel free to comment or ask a question if there's anything else you'd like to know!

 

I also brought my feed links (blog, patterns and book reviews)to a more visible spot on the site - see them (and subscribe!) just below the Twitter bird on the purple link bar at the right hand side. The archive is now in the footer, so just scroll a bit and you'll find it.
