For some time I’ve been wanting to put together this third straight-sided shape to add to the bonnet & beret shapes of my Dicey Highland Hats pattern ~~ I’m calling it the “Dicey Highland Cap”. Now have it done & dusted, and pattern is updated to include it ! All that is needed is a bit of fun with my nieces and a photo shoot for all three shapes, when they come this weekend to visit.
Speaking of Highlands, here, the California Highlands is having a lovely slow turning of Autumn, alternately misty & cool and bouncing back up to clear warm days. Now we expect some rain and it will glue down all the lovely maple & oak leaves which have fluttered to the ground. I’m looking forward to some lashing blustering rain!!! For now we’re still out walking every day, at least once !
Was just out on the trail knit-walking and overlooking this …
I WANT this SO BAD!! …..plaid skirt, stockings and some leather boots and we’re ready for a long mountain ramble!!…..Uh, Christmas is coming! Hint hint, wink wink, nudge nudge……
I think that Natural Grey (Jamiesons of Shetland Spindrift “Shaela”) is so picture perfect of the misty fog which pours all over our mountain, in and amongst the trees and cabins, wouldn’t you say? That cap , or one just like it, has got your name on it xx 🙂
Perfect. Love that shade contrasted with the “Dice”
That is the signature Highland diced band, with the red , black & white… and red toorie.
Great work – and fab view.
Hi Lizzi, 🙂 xx
I have a tam with that same diced band! I love it but I’m a little self conscious when I wear it, it’s a little large with the ribbons down the back and all. But yours are the perfect size and I do love my hand knit berets!
Yes, one needs a little Scottish checking now and again, in Scottish wool perhaps, but maybe at times a little more applicable to things such as ski slopes, stormy beach walks, and shopping malls…. (being that its holiday season). I hope you make several ! 🙂 xx
