Double Knit With Me!

So, I'm having a December baby... as in, her first few months will be January and February... in Boston! This baby needs a hat. No, this baby needs a warm hat! This baby needs a double knit hat, don't you think?

I've made a few double knit projects before:


Mike's Double Knit Hat


Jenny's Fish Hat


and a headband as part of a class I was teaching.

I really enjoy the technique, I love the end product, and it's a little bit technically challenging, while still just being a hat. Alison posted a great pattern a while ago for one, and I'm sure there are plenty of others out there online and off.

So, have I convinced you that double knit hats (or mittens or scarves or whatever else) are what you give the ones you really love? Yes? Well, then knit along with me! I have a wedding present I need to finish first, so that gives you time to think about it, and me time to make a button. I'm starting October 8th, are you in?
