Now that's better

I'm happy to report Cloche v2.0 (now upgraded to "Stella Cloche") was successful! I'm developing a bit of a thing for deep reds I'm afraid. This boundless affection is compounded with the dip of the asymmetrical brim and the welted black band. I do believe this is one of my favorite knits to date, and just in time for my Halloween costume! I was lucky enough to acquire a fantastic vintage flapper dress several years back working at a thrift store and I've been waiting to wear it since. Modeling photos and the pattern to come soon! Pattern now up here!
In the meantime, Stella in 360.

Clickety click. That's the sound of an incorrigible cloche-aphile (me!) adding your adorable hat to my list of things to knit.
