Nickles and Dimes is ready!!

The new hat design is ready! Here is "Nickles and Dimes."

Nickles and dimes is a slouchy beanie whose inspiration came from the beauty of mere pocket change. We all, at one time or another, have reached into our pockets and pulled out a handful of nickles and dimes…in search of the all powerful quarter, no doubt.

Next time, don’t despair! Just look at all those coins glisten together, all of that lovely layering of circles, writing and rigid edges. It is certainly note worthy!

The pattern for Nickles and Dimes is constructed of a series of cables, eyelets, and twisted stitches which allows for it’s beautiful texture of intertwining circular ribs and dainty lace embellishments.

This pattern includes both charts and written instructions for the cable pattern and its decreases.
