I was casting around ravelry on Monday night looking for a pattern for the Sit n Knit New York gift exchange. I'd had a cowl in my queue for a while and thought I'd give it a whirl, except in my yarn it looked hideous. Never fear, I thought, I'll rip out back to the ribbing sub in another lace stitch and all will be good. And it was... until I realised that what I was knitting was more slouchy beret than neckwarmer. A few minutes of hesitation was followed by some nifty decreasing, and half an hour later I had what I'm affectionately calling my Schlumpy Hat.
I'm thinking of reknitting this and tweaking the numbers a little and maybe, just maybe releasing my first pattern into the wild. Whadduthink? It's not like there aren't a million other Schlumpy hats out there but this one would be mine.
Cute! And as for the pattern... yes, please!
