Wow, finally a new pattern! Well ok, 'new' as in finally published. If we take a journey in the Way-Back Machine you'll see this version of a design concept started some time ago. I had put the project on hold over summer, planning to work out version 2.0 (a non-pointy beanie) and release them together. Even though v.2.0 is still in the works I had a complete hat and pattern lying around and now that fall has suddenly landed in my lap, decided it was time to actually do something with it. Both versions will eventually be released. Although I confess, this originally unintended version has grown on me to the point (haha, get it?) that it's my favorite.
Off-Kilter v.1 is worked flat on a bias and then seamed allowing the diagonal ribbing to keep all its normal 'elastic' properties. The yarn's (Di.Ve' Teseo) long striping color repeats create a cool alternating diagonal effect as well. After popular request, this hat is also offered in a child size which in my humble opinion I think would look freaking adorable, heh.

Very cute! If you made it in a silver yarn, it would look like a hershey's kiss! I think I need some chocolate...
