Calling all knitters!!
This is the Swizzle Hat, a pattern I developed when I was learning stranding. It's a nice beginner pattern because the carries are usually just 2 stitches wide (occasionally 3) so it's not too hard to keep the tension even.
The two hats pictured were the ones I did as I developed the pattern...they both have flaws so I have kept them for my family rather than sell them, however I do want to sell the pattern (along with future hats). I think I have all the kinks worked out and that the pattern is written clearly, but I would like to have a couple of people test it for me before I start selling it.
If you would be interested in testing it, I would send you the pattern (free) and in return I would like you to give me the following:
- Any feedback you have on the pattern--mistakes, confusing parts, etc
- Let me know what needle size/yarn weight you used, and how many stitches you CO for that gauge (this is a simple repeating pattern so can be easily adapted to different gauges) I'd like to be able to include tips for multiple gauges on the pattern, and thus far I have only knitted it in sport weight.
- Send me a photo of your completed hat that I can use in my pattern listing
- If you choose to sell hats made from the pattern (and you're welcome to do so!), please give me pattern credit in the listing
I'd be interested, if you don't mind that I live in Canada... you can check out my work here: www.icraft.ca/petitetuques
ReplyDeleteI think your patterns are very nice!
Thanks! I sent you an email from your personal blog!
ReplyDeleteJenni, that is awesome! If you need additional help, let me know. My brother has been begging for a hat and that looks perfect for him.
ReplyDeleteLove the hats ~ wish I had extra time to knit ;)
