This is just delightful. It strikes me as a construction style that could adapted pretty easily into a reversible hat.

Oh please please please write out your pattern! What a beautiful hat - I love it! Great job. And wine is always good - keep knitting, and drinking!

I am (almost) speechless over the cloche. I designed one last year (not featured on my blog, since I'm considering publishing it), that I like, but it lacks the very cool brim. Genious.

You know Panda is adorable. xox J.

I love the brim too! Outstanding color combo, by the way. Love purple and all that goes with it (which is pretty much anycolor...)

umm, have I mentioned that your knitting and designing talent COMPLETELY BLOWS ME AWAY?????? I printed up some of your patterns for Christmas gifts!

And Panda is so adorable, the perfect bored little model.

Marnie, the cloche is beautiful! The shaping of the brim and the ribbon band is very elegant and the flowers are so charming!

I, too, look forward to seeing the pattern.

Thanks for the dose of Panda!

What a great hat! What pattern did you use? I'm being a lazy ho, and don't want to go to your archive to look it up.

That brim is so professional. I look forward to a pattern.

Marnie -- I love that hat. I really hope that you'll write up the pattern so we sport your wears. I'd pay for it! Thanks for designing for us less creative folk!
