Alseid Hat

"In Greek mythology," counsels Ferguson, "the Alseids were the nymphs of the glens and the groves. They liked to scare travellers. We'll call them mischievous. This lovely hat will make you look like a wood nymph, with its leafy brim and its cabled trees. Worked up in a cozy worsted weight yarn, it can be done in two colours, or all in one. Both stitch patterns are slight variations of patterns from the Barbara Walker Treasuries-- always a source of great inspiration." Carefully written and extremely well-presented, this is a gem.
