Brackett II
“Hey, would you like me to make you a new hat?” It was around December, and I apparently felt particularly generous with my knitting time when I spoke those words to S. Looking back, I think it was part the ratty state of the ancient […]
Brackett Hat
I thought I’d show you one of the small projects I completed at the tail end the year. This one is the Brackett hat, published in Laine Issue 3. Laine is still a relatively new knitting issue, but has quickly made a huge name for […]
