but he doesn't love standing still while I take photos!
Actually...
I think that maybe he doesn't actually KNOW how to stand still...
Never mind, I should be used to it by now!
Here's an idea of how it looks:
Love the pattern. It's available as a free Ravelry download here.
One thing I don't love is the shaping at the top. It's all boxy like this:
That's BOXY... not POXY... or maybe both!
I could see from the pattern that the decreases were going to work up like this. I haven't ever made a hat with this type of shaping before, so I figured I would give it a go as written.
Ugh.
Don't... like... the... shaping...
At all.
So I've made the other ones differently. Will try and get photos of them over the next few days for you
Wow, what a neat little X. It reminds me of looking for treasure! I would feel like a target walking around with that on my head :(
ReplyDeleteAw...looks cool, and I think the shaping looks cool too. But I'm guessing it's more tricky that the usual hat shaping?
ReplyDeleteSadly I dont' have an excuse to knit any more hats, we have a houseful already lol.
