In this podcast we are all about the hats – ancient hats, modern hats, music about hats and books with hats in them. We’re turning knitting on it’s side, and finishing on its head, and I have no idea how it will all turn out, but something tells me it’ll all come right in the end.
You too, can knit the Modern Quilt Wrap. And there’s even Folk Style KAL. And if you’re stalled on this, or any other project, you can plan a Knitting Journey, and don’t forget to tell me about it!

Monmouth Caps are cool, and you can read more about them here and here. Knitting one won’t actually make you Welsh, but you’ll feel very Welsh when you wear it, and Monmouth Cap wearers everywhere will recognize you as one of the few, the proud.
Woolly Wormhead’s Hats are amazing, and I think everyone should buy her book.

Brenda,
I was re-listening to this podcast today and at the same time, have been preparing to go on a trip to India to teach knitting. My biggest dilemna is of course, what am I going to knit? And your podcast came up in shuffle play at just the right time. I went to my LYS after work and she hooked me up (sounds like a drug transaction) with some yarn and a pattern of the Modern Quilt Wrap.
Because i abhor weaving in ends, I chose to do this in Noro sock yarn. It’ll be a little different but still lovely. Thanks for another great podcast and for a great idea for travel knitting!
Julie
