My latest creation is this very cool hat - the Brigham One Skein Hat. This one was a little more difficult for me, although considered a beginner project. I can't tell you how many times I pulled it out and re-crocheted. lol Story of my life. Or, could I have a smidgen of perfectionist tendencies left over?
This has some beautiful stitches. The little "knots" that are sticking out in various photos are called "Picot" stitches, a type of decorative stitch.
I bribed my son to model this - I'm not sure what I owe him for this! lol Gotta make do when we have a serious lack of females around here!
I also joined Ravelry (a wonderful free site with patterns, techniques, and a wonderful crocheting and knitting community) - here is my project page: Cheri's Ravelry Page.
I may be linking to THESE parties.
wow...I'm impressed...but anything above a chain stitch impresses me. ;)

I seriously love that hat, and I'm not a "crocheted hat" kind of gal. Thanks for the link to the pattern - I'll probably be making some, too! :)
ReplyDeleteI've been crocheting for over 50 years now and just LOVE your new hat. The color and the photos you've shared. Trust me, no matter how long you've crocheted, you'll always have to pull out stitches now and then.....why, I've even had times when I read the instructions and re-read them and still say to myself "Huh?"
