Editorial Review: Product Description: Caps are wonderful knitting projects--small and portable, providing just the right mix of challenge and simplicity. From the basic watch cap to fanciful multicoloured and textured creations, knitters will be enticed by the intriguing diversity of style and technique: double-, triple-, and quadruple-thicknesses for warmth and weather resistance; hats with earflaps, ornamental cuffs, and jester's tassles; and even ornaments to hang from the Christmas tree.

 Rating:  - My favorite hat book!!This one book includes patterns for many hat styles. My favorite, and I have many.

I can gauge the size as I go and use whatever wool I like. Because every hat pattern is for circular ...

Rating: - My Favorite Hat BookI have been knitting for several years now and all that time I had been looking for my ideal hat book, and this was it! I particularly was looking for more traditional nordic patters--I'm a MN Scandinavian--and this book actually contained more than one (plus a number of other lovely designs inspired by other peoples and regions). I've knit more patterns from this book than I have for any other knitting or crochet books in my library. The patterns are clearly written and tremendous fun to knit. I'm ... Read More
