Anemone Hat! Knitting FO

 

Wow, what fun!

This is a great knitting pattern by Cat Bordhi. Lotsa new techniques, love that links to video demos are included. The pattern includes a lot of options – the brim can be knitted up in Moebius fashion or straight, you can use worsted or bulky yarns, in adult and children’s sizes.

Here are photos of my Anemone Hat “before” and “after” washing & drying, which really made the tendrils stand up.

I used a merino worsted superwash yarn from Sunshine Yarns in the Bitterroot colorway.

I knitted the Moebius brim version in an Adult Large, using a 38” cable. After I finished the brim, I used the Magic Loop technique all the way up.

I really, truly, can’t wait to cast on another! I want to knit one up in Lorna’s Laces … and one in bulky …
