So, this is a little different than my usual patterns. Instead of being instructions to make a specific thing, it’s more like a bag of blocks! You’ve got a whole bunch of pieces (more than 70 different charts), all based around the same lovely stitch pattern, that you can stack up to make all sorts of things. ⁠

Now don’t worry, I do tell you exactly how to make both of the hats you see in the picture! But I do that as a starting point, as an example of how you might put the pieces together. My real intent is that you’ll rearrange the pieces to make pretty much whatever you want. ⁠

And with all those pieces (an initial rib, a way to transition from the initial rib into the main stitch pattern, the main stitch pattern, two different ways to transition from the main stitch pattern back out a final rib, and final rib, all both flat and in the round, and all for four different widths, plus a couple of increase and decrease options for things like thumb gussets or hat crowns), and some handy sizing guides for hats, mitts, and socks, your options for what to make are very nearly endless.⁠

This one is just for Utter Nonsense and Rampant Nonsense folks on patreon  for at least the next couple of months, but if you want to play, come on over and join us. Joining at the Utter Nonsense level is only $6 (that’s less than the cost of a single pattern), and you’ll get a whole bunch of other patterns when you do (you can see the current list here). And you can read more about what all’s in there over here.

I’ve loved seeing what testers have come up with already, and I can’t wait to see what everyone else does next!
