She's just amazing, that Norah Gaughan. How her mind must work! She sees shapes in nature, repeating patterns, and interprets it in knitting. I was fascinated with this project, and once I started, couldn't put it down. I saw a sample being worn at Loopy's booth during last month's YarnCon, and purchased the yarn to make it on the spot. It's the Sunflower Tam from Knitting Nature. Mine is knit with Malabrigo Chunky, color Sealing Wax. I like it so much, that, true to my nature, I have to make more. I have one on the needle now, and yarn for a third! This is a big hat. I think I want to make one for my mom, but I'll use Malabrigo or Lamb's Pride worsted. My mom has a standard sized head.
