Katie's Kep

The swatching paid off - my hat fits beautifully!

This is Katie's Kep, designed by Wilma Malcolmson (for Shetland Wool Week 2020), knitted in Uradale Yarns jumper weight organic wool.

That is so beautiful Karen, love the colour combination! Had only yesterday seen your swatch and was about to comment on that as coincidentally, I had just watched Ella Gordon’s tutorial on YouTube earlier this week. So nice to see the finished work of art - you are a very accomplished knitter.

Doreen, you're very kind! I honestly don't think of myself as an accomplished knitter - rather more along the lines of "if I can do it, anyone can"!

Very pretty! I rarely wear hats because I hate having hat head but it was way below zero last Friday so I buried my pride and dug into my closet for one, wishing I had something as pretty as this!

Constance, I agree that the hairstyle tends to suffer, but as you say, sometimes needs must!

What a beauty! I find colorwork so absorbing that I end up knitting more than I planned because I'm always excited to see how the next row comes out!

Same here, Rebecca!
