storhedder.

This is the Storhedder hat by Mary Jane Mucklestone, and I love it. It was easy to knit up--quick and instantly gratifying. I hadn't discovered Mary Jane Mucklestone's brilliant color work until recently, and now I'm obsessed. I definitely want to try a whole bunch of her other projects; they are incredible.I knit this one exactly like the original in the pattern, using Cascade 220 in light gray for the main color and Knit Picks Preciosa in their tonal red. I love the finished results and gifted it to Sean; as a Phoenix transplant, and temperatures dipping to -35 degrees this weekend, you can never have too many new wool hats.I definitely want to make another one of these in a tan color for the main and black for the color work.You can see my project notes here.
