I've scheduled this post so that it goes live right at the moment when the GAL starts. (Not sure what I'm talking about? Refer to
this post for more information.) I'm hoping that at that moment, or very shortly thereafter, I'll be casting on my first project for the GAL, a gorgeous hat designed by
Clare Devine.
Clare is a knitwear designer with a number of lovely patterns in her portfolio. Earlier this year, she launched
The Tea Collection, an eBook with 13 patterns inspired by teas from around the world. Mostly hats, the collection contains beautiful photographs (I mean, really beautiful photographs!) and some nicely designed hats.
Although I like quite a few of the patterns in this collection, the one that really stands out to me is
Peppermint Leaves, most likely because of the exquisite top of the hat.

Isn't that just fantastic? I'm going to be using
Dream in Color Everlasting DK in the Grow colorway, which has been in my stash for almost three years. It's all wound up and ready to go as soon as the event begins. (Well, I have to buy the pattern first as it's part of the GAL sale which doesn't start until the event begins.)
You should take a look at some of
Clare's other patterns. Besides hats, she's got socks and cowls and shawls, so lots of great gift ideas within her patterns.
