Trying some basic granny square shapes to test a few ideas… We’ll see if I can get anything out of it. :-) The colors are pretty together, even though their totally different texture totally shows. Can you see how the purple yarn looks very slightly bouclŕ© with a very rounded and slighly undefined texture, when […]

It’s now official so I guess I can finally brag about it: my Altay hat was selected by annie Modesitt in the runners up for the book “1000 hats”. It’s great news for me because although I don’t really get paid for it, the pattern for this hat will be published in the book and […]
