I love watching youtube videos that educate me about the fibers that I love so much. From time to time when I find something that I felt was really valuable, I will share it with you guys! I know the first time I used a single-ply worsted weight yarn to make a hat, I thought I screwed up because one leg of the V was skinnier than the other...this video explains that it is normal and gave me a great visual to see WHY it happens!! Enjoy!
I had someone ask me about the Karen Chemo Cap Fan Stitch and I decided the video and pattern were both in need of a make-over! Especially when I noticed this year is the 5th anniversary of publishing this pattern. When my mom had chemo I made her a few different hats because honestly it felt like the only thing I could do. I designed this one just for her, and was super excited when it was her favorite! After she passed I wasn't sure I wanted to release the design, but with a little time...it felt like the right thing to do! You can download the pattern for free here (please give it a favorite over on Ravelry so that it gets a little Ravelry love!!!): Ravelry: Karen Chemo Cap pattern by A Little Knitty Designs You can purchase the yarn we used here: Cumulus by Juniper Moon Farm (alittleknitty.com) Here is the video if you need help with the fan stitch!
