Machine Knitting: the empire strikes hat
Play bad title pun games, win bad title pun prizes.
The Chattie hat continues to tempt and taunt me. After my first test Chattie
came out OK despite some major issues during construction, and my second

Producer Amy has ultimately adopted the “test” C...

Machine knitting: a (c)hattie
In 2025 the folks at machineknit.community did a 12 Months of Hats knitalong. I only joined at the end of the year, and am still getting my practice in with a lot of basics, so I was a bit too intimidated to jump into any of these in the actual year of 2025.
