Hope you have a cozy holiday. I'm planning to have a hot pot party with wine, beef and lots of mushrooms. Yeah..not turkey...not a fan. How about yours?
Today I'm gonna share a hat pattern with you all. I've finished this baby hat long ago, and had the manuscript of it. However, due to heavy coursework load, I was not able to edit and post it online. I don't even have the label of the tweed yarn anymore. If you can tell me what brand it is, it would be wonderful. Anyhow, the yarn I used for the part for ribbing was bought in Ichiban Kan a few years ago for a dollar each ball.
Here is the pattern of Op. 22. Hope you like it.

It should results in 14 stitches remaining. Bind off.
I would recommend this pattern to "almost intermediate" knitters. It is a quick knit. If you think the gauge of this hat is a bit too tight, feel free to use US #8 (5.0 mm) double pointed needles instead of US#7 . Hope it will cheer up your holidays.
There is another hat that I knitted long ago. I couldn't find the manuscript of the pattern. Just call it Op. 23. It was made with Mochi Plus yarn in two colorways. 1 balls for the main pattern and a few yardages for the ribbing part should do it. As you can see, it requires some simple cable knitting skills. Anyhow, here is a pic of it.
Happy knitting!!! And see you guys soon...Perhaps on YouTube?
