Have you ever written a blog post, then forgotten to hit the publish butten?

Well that's where last week's post went.

I had finished this snowy beret the weekend of the snow storm. The snow storm that came in October, hence the name October Snow.

When my sister asked me to make a hat for this winter, I started thinking about what would look good with her curly chestnut hair. There was a skein of dark green cascade 220 in the yarn stash, and the knitting commenced.

Here are a few shots of the new pattern on, you may notice that the lady in the picture does not have curly chestnut hair. That is because she is not my sister, the model is actually my grandmother.

 You can see that all of the shaping is done with cables.

 This pattern is already in testing and should be finished next week ready. Get it on ravelry.
