knock knock Who's there? Orange. Orange who? Orange slouch.
It's my orange version of Knit & Tonic's Le Slouch hat! The Debbie Bliss Cashmerino Aran is soft and drapey at this gauge, giving this beret a lot more slouch than my last one. This hat is so cool, it makes me want to read French philosophy again.
And it's so orange, it makes me want to tell knock knock jokes. posted by alison at 12:34 pm | in

Very cute! I started one of these over the weekend, but had to rejigger all of my numbers for my much finer yarn. I'll probably need to make a second one with a yarn that will produce that correct gauge! Posted by: Seanna Lea at November 25, 2008 12:49 PMit goes beautiful with your eyes. Posted by: jiva at November 25, 2008 1:26 PMCute hat - can't think of anything that would make me want to read Sartre again! Haven't you been inundated with bad little boy jokes & potty humor? My 2 oldest grands (7 & 5) have become real boys ever since the older one started full day school in the fall. We're resigning ourselves to another 10 or more years of this. Right now we are just hoping for jokes that make the tiniest bit of sense! Posted by: Donna at November 25, 2008 1:33 PMYour hat is beautiful! It does slouch nicely, :) and the colour is gorgeous. Well done! Posted by: samm at November 25, 2008 1:38 PMKnock knock... You pull it off! Posted by: Sarah at November 25, 2008 5:17 PMOooo--I love it! The orange is so bright and cheery, and it looks fantastic with your eyes. Posted by: Suzanne V.

Perfect timing for Thanksgiving. Posted by: Jennifer at November 25, 2008 7:40 PMHi, I've just been looking at your blog (redirected from Knitty). The hat is brilliant! I'm going to try to make one just like it for my friend who's clamouring for an orange slouchy hat. Thanks for making me aware of the pattern. Posted by: Lucy at November 26, 2008 3:46 AMIt's totally cute! I LOVE the orange!! Posted by: lindsey at November 26, 2008 8:33 AMOoh, your new orange LeSlouch looks so cute! I adore the orange color. That style really looks good on you. Posted by: Jaime at November 28, 2008 3:02 AMI like it! I just finished my LeSlouch hat also, I should really take some pictures and blog that puppy. :) Happy Thanksgiving. Posted by: Jess at November 29, 2008 12:09 PM |
