I’ll often begin with an older pattern of mine and just replace the
instructions - in these cases, some uncorrected issues included
confusiong statements about which size of needles to use (even though
the hats only use one size) and how to use the cast-on tail to do
something that it really really can’t.

And this, the third? Well… I have high hopes that it will do as well as, or even surpass, Piper.

This round of pattern production saw two hats and a hooded scarf all
ready to go in early September, and I made use of Ravelry’s Testing
Pool, Hats Hats Hats, and Just A Scarf groups to find testers. 24hours
after I posted a request for testers, I had 20+ responses! A couple of
testers haven’t returned my emails since the initial pattern sendout,
but the rest have come through with questions, comments, suggestions,
red and blue and green ink, and a glorious amount of support for my
designwork.

Again with the comparison: if you did this with Piper, the turban
effect would be pretty powerful. With Bandit, it is a much subtler
flavour: is it a turban reference? Or does it suggest the bandanna of
Rosie The Riveter? Or something rockabilly?

when I start writing up a new pattern, I’ll often begin with an older
pattern of mine and just replace the instructions - in these cases, some

In the winter, this accessory must be one of the most used to protect yourself against cold weather.
