This is a wonderful way to see how shaping can create design lines. Watch the decreases create a gentle swirl that forms the dome of this flattering and wearable hat. Knit in texture-rich seed stitch at an easy gauge in soft Mountain Merino, this is a quick and satisfying project. Embellish the I-cord top knot with buttons, beads, or multiple knots, for a look that is uniquely yours.

Jill Wolcott Knits patterns are very complete--I strive to create a complete and clear guide to a completed project. guide and leave little room for to interpretation. When a pattern challenges you to conquer a new technique, the directions and support are there to give you a great result (I've given it lots of thought and coached many knitters to new skill heights). Your reward will be the skill that you take forward in your knitting. My love is knitting, not sewing, so I design so that as much as possible is done on the knitting needles with sewing only as absolutely necessary. This isn't necessarily a shortcut, but I think it works really well for those who don't love the finishing process.
I have an extensive online techniques library to help you master techniques I use, and anything specific to a pattern is included.
