new design: Aunt Jill's Hat
Have y'all met Jill yet? I'm sure most of you have had an interaction with her at some point, whether in person, over the phone, or via email. But just in case you have not met Jill, here's a little about her knitting:
Jill is a DYNAMO knitter. Every year she knits dozens of gifts for all of her extended family, and often she will make them all the same gift (i.e. a hat one year, a basket one year, a stuffy toy one year, etc).
When I was working on the design of this hat, I kept thinking, "Jill will love this for gift knitting". After a while I realized, this really had to be named "Aunt Jill's Hat". This is the perfect gift knit because it's quick and easy, and you can make it in any weight of yarn.
