Dream Catcher Hat – preview

Hi Spud & Chloë Friends,

I made this hat with the remaining yarn from the Dream Catcher Baby Blanket. It is sweet and fast.

By the way, I’m sorry to say I don’t know where the hat stand comes from. It was special ordered from a shop that doesn’t exist any longer and it doesn’t have a tag or name on it. I get asked about this every time I put a photo up of the hat stand.

The hat is knit in the round using the Harris Tweed Stitch pattern from the first square I made. For the top seam I used a three-needle bind off. This is a great technique that is simple and creates a clean and easy seam. I have illustrated step by step instructions on this technique in Itty-Bitty Hats if you don’t know how to do it.

I’ll be back soon with the Dream Catcher Hat pattern for you. Until then…
