Wee Hearts in nine different Fair Isle Hebridean 2ply colors! Actually this hat is a study on one of Alice*Starmore’s colorways , a colorway from her design “Mary Tudor” from her 2013 second edition of Tudor Roses , using her own yarn, as sequenced in the chart. You could say this hat was a colorway test for Mary Tudor Cardigan, although I did change some colors around from the chart, because of a mistake I made. I really came out of the study with a better understanding of how the blending of foreground color changes against background color changes can be in modern Fair Isle.
Now I am wondering, do I have time for one more? Not really, I must be on to Autumnal Sweaters!
Holy Moly! That is SO freaking pretty! It looks like a mountain sunset. Just beautiful. Your fingers must knit like the wind.
Thanks Sorcha! It was some work. 🙂 xx
Isn’t there always time for another pretty hat??
Yes MaryJo, I think there always is, especially as gift-giving season is fast approaching (it always surprises me how soon after July it just becomes December!) 🙂
Jen your colour choices make the hat glow.
Thanks Wen, a close copy of one of A.Starmore’s colorways with her own beautiful Hebridean 2ply yarn, it really makes a work of art.
It’s in a different class! Wow!
🙂 xx
Super! Your Skier is very refined and classic, yet explodes into beautiful color blends. Great study success indeed.
So much that 9 colors can transform a 2-color design!
