Today I thought I'd introduce you to the next Drift Collection pattern in more detail - this is Pimms Cup by Thea Colman. Thea is based in the US, and has been releasing patterns that I have continuously queued. We worked together on a couple of previous patterns - Cardamom Rose and Dubonnet, so I was thrilled that she was up for being involved in our collection. Anyway, Pimms Cup is a slouchy hat, with a lace pattern and optional bobble. It has just the right amount of slouch, in my biased opinion. Here are the details you need: Materials Eden Cottage Yarns Whitfell DK (DK, 100% baby Alpaca; 100m / 109yds per 50g skein) Shade: Dogwood; 2 x 50g skein(s) Needles and Accessories 3.25mm (US 3) circular needles, 30 -40cm (12-16in) length (or the size needed to obtain the correct gauge) 3.75mm (US 5) circular needles, 30 -40cm (12-16in) length (or the size needed to obtain the correct gauge) One set of DPNs in larger size for crown. Note: If you would like hat to be a bit smaller or larger, go up or down one needle size. Notions Stitch marker, darning needle Sizes One size Finished brim circumference: 42.5 cm /16.75in Finished hat circumference: 45.75 cm /18 in To fit: 50.75cm / 20in Length: 24cm / 9.5in Note: sizing may seem small, however the alpaca yarn creates a knitted fabric that will stretch to fit. Gauge 28 sts and 32 rows to 10cm (4in) over ribbing stitch, in the round, on 3.25mm/US 3 needles after blocking. 26 sts and 30 rows to 10 cm (4 in) over lace and cable stitch, in the round, on 3.75mm/US 5 needles after blocking.
