ANNOUNCING A NEW PATTERN RELEASE
NOTE: My original post was unclear — Drizzle has already been released and is available on Ravelry!
I have been cranking out hats like crazy this week in preparation of the launch of my latest hat pattern: Drizzle on the Window. The “drizzle” refers to the 3 sizes of beads that form what looks like droplets of water running down a window, like this:
This picture was actually taken in my car in a fast food drive-through lane during a recent January thaw! Here are the hats:
From left to right: Sun Valley MCS, SundayKnits Angelic, BT Peerie
Peerie, Color Driftwood
The tassel has a beaded twisted cord:
I knit the hats in three different yarns to see how they worked: Sun Valley Fibers MCS, SundayKnits Angelic 3-ply, and Brooklyn Tweed Peerie. Each took very different yardage though they were the exact same size! The Angelic and Peerie were easiest when it came to placing the smallest beads. I have to say that the Angelic is everyone’s hands-down favorite!!
The beadwork is only on the front of the hat, making this a pretty easy and speedy bead project.
PS to Annie – the poms are from different Etsy sellers.
PS2 to Alicia: The Angelic needs to be purchased from Carol Sunday at SundayKnits. She will mail it immediately. The yarn is wonderful and so is she. I bought all the beads at Storm Cloud Trading Company on Snelling and Minnehaha in St. Paul. I know there are on-line sources as well.
What a pretty hat! Looking forward to the pattern.

These are really pretty! I wish that my head and hair weren’t too big for hats!

Wow!! Any chance a store in the cities stocks the Angelic? … and all the bead sizes? 🙂
