Hey, remember that pattern I keep promising?
July 11, 2011 § 5 Comments
Well, it’s finally here! Inspired by a candid snapshot I saw on the web somewhere, I wanted to make a quick floofy beret-type thingie. Luckily for me, I do a little designing here and there, so I whipped one up. Both the designing and the actual knitting were really quick; the big delay in getting the pattern published was my inability to get a decent photo that really showed how cute the hat is when worn. I’m still not thrilled with the photos, but got one that was Good Enough, and it’s long past time this pattern was made public. So, to start the week off right, I give you my latest Lauriginal: the Tip-topper. Free PDF download currently only available on Ravelry, but I’ll work the kinks out of the Patterns and Projects Page and get it thrown up there (as well as a PDF for that little headphone holder I posted last week — that should go over there, too, huh?).
Yeah, I know I'm not smiling. Had to choose between a decent pic of me or a decent pic of the hat for this one. The hat won.
ETA: Maven, is this what you were looking for?
As requested (I hope).
Lovely hat. Is there a possibility of getting a profile shot, showing that detail at the center of the crown?
At present, no (I just don’t have one with that angle). But I will endeavor to take more pics soon-ish and see if I can make that happen.
Thanks so much for snapping the extra pic!
Any time! And I’m going to try to make it to knit night soon, too — had a bit of a setback with the pain stuff, but I’ve got a doc appt. this week so hopefully it’ll all get straightened out.
