AC022 Head Huggers
Yes, I live in Arizona, but I just can't get over this garter stitch hat! It's an incredibly quick knit, and one size will fit just about everyone you know. Directions are provided for so many gauges--1 3/4, 2, 2 1/2, 3, 3 1/2, 4, and 4 1/2 sts per inch--you can work with an almost limitless range of exciting yarns.
And as if that weren't enough, you can choose to make the Basic Head Hugger (pilot shaped, worked in one piece, buttons closed) or the Fit To Be Tied Head Hugger (which includes an attached scarf).
The techniques used (short-row shaping and i-cord edging) are described so clearly and yield such magical results, don't be surprised if you're ready to start another just as soon as your first is off the needles!
