Craft blogs are a great place not only to find new patterns or projects designed by the blogger, but also to learn about projects they have made that came from other places. I definitely don’t do enough writing about that sort of thing, which is a shame because there are a lot of great patterns out there that I knit but don’t really talk about.
Over at All About Ami, Stephanie wrote about being smitten by the pattern on the yarn label for Lion Brand Touch of Alpaca. She knit the Lima Super Slouch Hat (registration required to download, or grab a ball at the store and read the ball band) for herself and made a scaled-down, less-slouchy version for her daughters.
Both of them are super cute and she looks amazing in that hat. Serious hat envy over here.
Check her post for all the details on the kids’ version and her pattern notes for the adult version as well.
Have you ever knit the pattern on the ball band? I’d love to hear about it!
