A warming trend

January 24, 2009 in accessories, hats, knitting by Sarah

I started knitting the Sideways grande hat from Laura Irwin’s Boutique Knits this week:

I am using a couple skeins of Berocco Ultra Alpaca (non-Ravelry link) I had in my stash. It is a nice relaxing project that doesn’t require any math on my part more strenuous than counting.

There are some good things about living somewhere with a wintery climate and some things that are just things — one of the things is that you can definately start a winter hat in January and still have time to wear it before it gets warm.

This stitch “appears” to be different than K1 P1 ribbing? I like the looks of the Sideways grande hat stitch can you share?

This stitch is a K1, P2 rib with the K1 side facing you.
