"Sweet ‘Baby’ Cap" … for An Adult



So, somewhere, somehow, I happened across a pattern for Sweet Baby Cap … and it looked perfect for winter in Glasgow! So, by simply using a heavier weight yarn & using slightly larger needles (addi turbo 4mm, I think), I’m doing this up for one of us (well, OK, for me). Notice the handy yarn markers? They were a gift from Jackie over at One Thread Two Thread!

Each single marker is marking a double-decrease (sl1, k2-tog-tbl, psso) and each pair of markers (the ones at noon, 4:00, 8:00 in the picture) are marking a paired increase (yo, k1, yo). I’m finally figuring out how to use yarn markers, as well, which is very cool – every time I’ve used them before I’ve ended up placing them incorrectly, such that my increase, rather than staying put, has crept around the pattern. So … I’m being a bit more mindful of the things, and have actually managed to keep them in line with the numbers for a couple of repeats of the pattern.

After the monstrous scarf, this hat is a nice, short project! I may finish it up this evening!
