Michelada, and a new yarn for you to try...

Introducing Michelada!

And Magpie Fibers new non-superwash worsted weight yarn, Nest - it's 100% Corriedale, and Dami has created this gorgeous Twilight series of colors, all dyed over the natural gray - so the heathers really add some gorgeous depth to the fiber.

Pair one skein of Nest with a few cables - I chose this mix of narrow traveling lines and thicker twisted columns, to create a motif with a bit of movement to it - and voila! It's quite the dramatic, but actually very simple hat! 

And a hat is the PERFECT thing to be knitting right now - portable travel project, much-needed gift  knit, or just an excuse to get a skein of a new yarn and try it out!

Until Sunday 12/1 at midnight, the code NESTNOW will get you 20% off the pattern if you purchase from me on Ravelry - just to try and coerce you to give it a go!

I've got some cornbread stuffing and a puppy waiting for me, so pardon the short post.  All the details are on the Ravelry page....
