Estel Pattern
Wow, um I’m so sorry to have been basically MIA for the past 3 months almost. There’s been a ton of things going on at home, lots of patterns to type, trying to organize the house, some health things coming up and now my new job is in full swing. Also hopefully in a few months my schedule will change back to more of what I used to work, that would be nice.
I also finally got to be an Audible affiliate which is great since on my Instagram and on here, I have a plethora of books from them I’ve been promoting! That being said, they have an amazing deal going on through the end of the year! Click on the banner below! Also at the top section of this page there’s a book page. Check that out as well, it has a link to my audible list of recommendations.
Anywho, since its been a hot minute, I decided this pattern could also hit my blog. Its been a while since I had a freebie, and this one I’m really proud of. I suck at making hats y’all. I figured out a way to do so without having to do a much of increases and decreases (this is why I also suck at making clothes, give me squares and rectangles please).
You can also pick up an ad free version on the Etsy shop. All patterns are 20% off the rest of the month.
Estel in Elvish means faith or hope. I picked this as the first real hat pattern I've made and I had lost all hope I ever could, but here we are, a hat with no increase or decrease stitches.
