\"Hat<\/p>\n

It’s been a while since I’ve made a proper update, so here are photos of a hat and scarf I made last year, based on a hat and scarf I originally designed for Minnie<\/a>. The original scarf was wider; I’ve made this one narrower, but it uses the same starburst stitches, shown here:<\/p>\n

I’ve actually made this set about three times now, mostly because I wanted to write down the hat pattern in my notebook and re-create the pattern from my notes, in order to make sure it actually makes sense and to correct any mistakes I might have made in recording my stitches. The second set went to my rabbit, and the third and fourth half-sets—in other words, just the hats—went to my mother and to my sister. And now that it’s been a while since I’ve crocheted this pattern, I’ll probably do another set before I have someone else give my pattern a try for some quality control.<\/p>\n

It amazes me that there are so many people out there creating their own patterns on a regular basis and submitting them to crochet magazines and how-to books. I find transcribing my patterns such a tedious process that I wonder if I’m doing something wrong. There must<\/em> be an easier way, and I’d love to find it before I tackle transcribing my other patterns.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, here’s another shot showing more of the hat and scarf.<\/p>\n
