Are there buy buttons above? If so, you've caught this book on one of the handful of days every year when it's available! If not, read on for details of where it went and what to do if you want to be notified the next time it's available.

A few years ago I got overwhelmed by my back catalog, retired most of my earlier work, and launched Tiny Nonsense. That gave me space to make Cool New Stuff! But some people missed the earlier things, so I make many of the retired patterns available for a few days once or twice a year.

• If you see the buy buttons on this page, you’ve caught it on one of the days it’s available! You can buy it just like usual.

• If you don’t see the buy buttons on this page, then it’s not currently available. It will probably be available the week after Thanksgiving and for a few days in June or July.

• If you want to hear when the retired patterns come back, subscribe to the mailing list or patreon, or keep an eye on my instagram.

(Don’t worry, if you have a code from a book or kit, it will still work! Just follow the instructions you were given with the code and you’ll still be able to download the pattern.)

Did you ever have such a good time with a project that you were a little sad when it was done? Well that’s exactly what happened with these hats! I had so much fun with the first one that I didn’t want to stop. So I knit another…then another…then one more, each using the same beautiful technique. Even after all that, I still wasn’t ready to be done.

So I did the only reasonable thing. I brought the hat patterns that started my obsession, an introduction to the technique they share, and variations on each of the pattern stitches together to create the little collection you’re seeing now.

It’s part pattern book, part technique book, and part stitch dictionary. With it as your guide, you’ll be able to make these amazing hats (plus matching cowls), explore the stitch variations included here, or design amazing stitches of your own.

I suspect you’re going to have just as much fun as I did!
