is there a pattern or instructions i can hunt down for hat 1?

Sadly, no. I did a variation on a hat shape by Cosette Cornelius-Bates, which can be found in her book Knit One, Embellish Too, which is, incidentally, my all-time favorite knitting book and biggest inspiration. If you like to knit hats, I seriously recommend this book!

My favorite is the Little Red hat as well. So much so that I bought it. xD *is somewhat obsessed with that fairy tale*
I really love all of these, though. Your hats are wonderful!

Aw, cool! I sent it off a couple days ago.
I know, I want to make more little red riding hoods. ;D

Oh, I got it today, actually! I love it 
I only wish it were cold enough here to get away with wearing it now. Funny, I never thought I'd be hoping for colder weather...
Do eet! x]

Some of them. I learned a lot from patterns in books and online before I could learn to make my own.

Oh! They are adorable, really.
I want, at least, two of them [2 and 4]. I would like to see a black hat with white circles. *-*

Where you learn to knit hats like that, lily-fox?
Also, do you use circular needles?
Do you go by any general patterns, or do you make 'em all up from scratch?
I like them all.

Thank you! I learned the most from a great book: Knit One, Embellish Too by Cosette Cornelius-Bates. Also from Ravelry, a font of great patterns.
I do use circulars -- I actually learned to knit on a circular.
It took me a while of practicing with patterns to learn the anatomy of a hat. Now that I know, I can make 'em up as I go!

I can understand. I need to buy some circulars so badly. I'd definitely like to get one of those exchangeable sets. Your stuff is super-cute and really creative. I'd buy one if I had the cash. lol.
Thanks for the inspiration!

Let me tell you, I wish I had had the sense to buy an interchangable set of circulars, because I have amassed so many it's ridiculous. It would have saved me so much money. DO IT!
π: 0 β©: 1
lol. I surely will.
Also, have you ever made socks?
I recently bought my first set of dpn and was planning to make socks or a hat. I got too frustrated, but I plan on trying again soon.

I tried knitting socks once, and it was such a headache that I frogged it and never tried again. See, i like hats because you can start it on a circular and finish it on dpns. It's great practice for getting comfy with dpns.

Very cool.
Thanks a lot.
I look forward to your next batch-o-hats.

Quit tempting me with all your hatty goodness!
I just have to keep reminding myself that I already have 2 of you wonderous hats, and I do NOT need anymore, not right now anyway....
By the way, I still get complimented all the time on my lovely 'good to be green' hat
π: 0 β©: 1
Ha ha! Seriously, babe, save your money now. If you see more hats that you love, just remember them and I can knit dupes when we're all a little deeper in the green.
I'm so glad you love that hat.
π: 0 β©: 1
what makes me happy is that I work for the energy saving trust. So my job is pretty much convincing ppl that it's 'good to be green'

That is the most awesome occupation I can think of.

haha it's not as awesome as it sounds, I'm mostly a phone-monkey!

And I wish you could have went to see Hanson with me tuesday night.. It was a blast! I am just now posting a journal about it here on DA.. so everyone can read.. It was really cute.. I gave them each copic marker portraits, and bracelets signifing world peace.. I don't know if they'll ever wear them, but hey it's the thought that counts right?

i love that you still do this and your skill is obviously growing. i have always been a HUGE fan of these kinds of hats and have a massive collection and now i really really want to try making some myself. ...after graduation of course
but thank you, these are fantastic.

I've got some great book recommendations for anybody wanting to knit some hats. And I've got a pattern working for the Radio Room hat to share! I hope you do get to knit up some!
