Golden Hands Hats
So, away from politics and back to the crochet hat pattern from Golden Hands!
I used 8 ply from stash, primarily wool, with a 4.5mm hook. Whipped up a hat for myself:
then whipped up another for a friend who always wears hats.
I reckon that this pattern has stood the test of time.
I like it 🙂 I really should wear hats more often. Hats look good on you.
They are both great, but I love love love the colours in the one for your friend 🙂 So sweet!
I have most of the Golden Hands series that belonged to my Mum – I love them but haven’t learned to crochet…one day as they look awesome!!! I love your vintage crochet posts and seem to have lots of patterns among Mum’s stuff but she never crochet – that I know of..
Oh! The one you made for yourself suits you so much – it’s really cute. Oddly, it doesn’t really look like a vintage pattern in the versions you’ve made. Really sweet.
They look great! I’m inspired to see what treasures my mum has laying about the house.
Hi, I think I saw you at Flinders St station on Monday morning – I let you go in front of me at the exit (at least I think it was you coz I thought your scarf/shawl and glasses looked familiar).
How exciting to be recognised from your blog!!
Hope you didn’t mind a stranger trying to discreetly check-out your outfit in case you had something new on.
Cheers.
That is such a cute hat!
I’ve only just discovered that my subscription to your blog had disappeared from my Google Reader. I’ve got a few weeks’ worth of crochet adventures to catch up on!
