Stocking Cap

[wlotus]

One of T's co-workers recently commissioned me to make a stocking cap for her based on a stocking cap she already owned. Unlike the original cap, this one is knitted in the round, which means there is no seam. I am pleased with the outcome, and I hope she is, too.

You're so talented - first to be able to make it and second to make it look so lovely in the photo!

Thanks!

I'm crocheting my first sock, now. :-)

that's a cute cap.


do you have a photo of the original, by chance? i've been using my looms lately, and have some trouble breaking down exactly what i need to do when making something with multiple or oddly shaped parts.

I didn't photograph the original before I returned it.

i've noticed you've done quite a few pieces based on something already made, and was curious what you look for, and how close they come to the original when you're done.
if you think of it next time, i'd love to see your "before" and "after"s

That's a very good idea, even for my own reference. I hope I remember, next time!

What are clever clogs?

It's an Australian expression,if somebody does something clever you might say,"Well you're a clever clogs!"

LOL! Thanks for the explanation--I love learning such things--and the compliment!
