This is a PAID pattern, so I will not be sharing the pattern itself, moreover I will share the outcome and my feelings on the ease of instruction. See bottom of post for the links.
As I was perusing the Velvet Acorn's mountain of absolutely gorgeous patterns, this cap stopped me. I don't know why. Of all the adorable and intricate patterns here, this relatively plain (comparatively) pattern just called out to me. So it quickly went in to my list of patterns I purchased. The price I found to be very fair as well, tho I bought a bulk set of patterns.
Just a nice, quick working basic slouchy, I didn't have much trouble at all. To be honestly, the worst part was when I realized that I had forgotten how to make a magic circle! Of all things. Oh the sacrilege. So I just chained. Like a good little chainer. I used my gorgeous gorgeous Lakefront chroma worsted yarn from Knit-picks, and this hat took about 98% of the ball (100 grams). It would probably have taken around 95% if it weren't for my two or three failed attempts at the magical circle. I still have no idea why I had problems with that.
The pattern is very short, and very simple to read. Beginners, have no fear. This is perfect, and I am absolutely in LOVE with this hat. I am going to add a bit of personal embellishment later, if I can find the right type of button I picture in my head. I also see exactly who would LOVE to recieve this hat. This quick working pattern would be perfect for gifts.
