This hat is designed by Franklin Habit, accomplished knitting designer and historian of the fiber arts. The story of the inspiration of his design is a fascinating one: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e “When WEBS asked me to celebrate their anniversary with a pattern, I decided (as I often do) to look to knitting history for inspiration. What is an anniversary, after all, if not a time to think over the past? \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e In 1874, exactly a century before WEBS opened its doors, the legendary American magazine Godey's Lady's Book tempted subscribers with an octagonal counterpane that mixed texture and lace to very striking effect. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e I wasn't in the mood for a counterpane, but I did think something of the kind would look well as the top of a perky little tam. Here it is– perfect for keeping off the autumn chill or for flinging into the air in a celebratory fashion.” \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eThis pattern is available as a PDF download.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eFinished Measurements:\u003c\/strong\u003e 11\" across top after blocking\u003cbr\u003e fits head sizes 20\"–23\" (adult small to medium)\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eYarn Requirements:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 skein Valley Yarns Huntington (75% Superwash Merino Wool\/25% Nylon, 50g\/218yds) in colour #10 Natural\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eNeedles:\u003c\/strong\u003e Two US 4 (3.50 mm) 24” circular \u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eGauge:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5 sts and 8 rnds = 1\" in stocking stitch, worked in the round with 2 strands of yarn held together\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/blog.yarn.com\/the-centuria-tam-from-franklin-habit\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eLearn more about Franklin Habit and his design on our blog!\u003c\/a\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003cem\u003ePDF updated 05\/07\/2014. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.yarn.com\/pages\/valley-yarns-patterns-errata\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003ci\u003eView errata here.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003ci\u003e If you purchased the PDF version, the newest version is \u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.yarn.com\/users\/patterns\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003ci\u003eavailable in your pattern library\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003ci\u003e.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LoveCrafts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56740427301242,"sku":"20015545","price":7.65,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0931\/3219\/4170\/files\/4dc5099e56b6b142e65b00c1ee8f89eacc8449a5_bf009d4a_5e00_4253_96c1_75b075ea112f.jpg?v=1775803289","url":"https:\/\/www.lovecrafts.com\/en-au\/products\/40th-anniversary-07-centuria-tam-hat-knitting-pattern-for-women-in-valley-yarns-huntington","provider":"LoveCrafts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
