Where to buy the Knitted Library Window Watchcap and the Crochet Version

Library Windows Watchcap

Which hat came first?

I actually crocheted this hat before the Knitted Library Windows Watchcap, even though it was published second.

The top down shape allowed me to try a crown, then rip back when it was too loose.

It’s amazing how much negative ease a watchcap needs!

Family Response

 

I knew I was on the right trail when M picked up my prototype, and asked if he could keep it.

 

Then Dan wanted it.

 

And finally, K brought me the orange left overs from the knitted one, and said, “Mommy, I need a hat too, but I want one like M’s.” So I crocheted her the small size, but in a thicker yarn. It came out just right.
