Warmth
Posted By LaLa on March 2, 2010
Mississippi has had a cold snap the last few days. It made me very happy to have the Thorpe I knit back in January.
It’s not the most flattering hat in the world, but it does keep me warm, a very important thing when cheering middle schoolers on at a soccer game in 30 degree weather. Here’s some details…
Pattern: Thorpe by Kirsten Kapur of Through the Loops
Yarn: Fleece Artist BFL Aran and Lamb’s Pride Bulky for the crochet edging that Leslie did.
Needles: Size 9 (this hat is top down so I started on dpns and then switched to circulars).
Notes: I love top down hats and this pattern is perfect. It is very easy to follow and adjust sizing on. Plus, I love how warm this hat is. I’m making matching wristers out of the remainder of the yarn.
I think the hat is quite flattering! Lovely work on it!
