I got another pattern published today. That means you all get cheated out of a real blog post. You have to make do with a re-hash of stuff I wrote up for the pattern, pictures you can find over on ravelry, and something else… Oh yeah. A download code good for a free copy for the next 24 hours.

Roomy – because hats can never be too slouchy!

Download code: lotsofslouch

Code is good for the next 24 hours (until 1pm CST on June 4th). Expired. But check back because I always offer a download code here when I publish a new design!

FYI: Making everyone come here for the code is all part of my evil plan. I hope they will notice that I have lots of free stuff, like patterns and tutorials, for them to check out.

I had lots of fun making Roomy. So I made two of them.

I love yellow but it does not love me back. That’s okay; I made that one for a friend.

The pattern is written for two sizes, small and large. I will never understand why some hat patterns are written as one-size-fits-all when heads come in different sizes. No one believes in one-size-fits-all socks do they?

I use twisted stitches in this design. Again. What can I say? I like them! They look so pretty.

But best of all, Roomy has lots of room for all my frizzy hair. I could tuck it all up and have room to spare. (And that rhymed. Ha!)

Go grab your copy. Any image should be a working link over to the pattern page on ravelry. Then grab some size 5 needles and some worsted weight yarn and get casted on!
