Correlation
So there’s reversible as in ‘yup, it’s more or less the same on both sides.’ And then there’s reversible as in ‘wait…those are both gorgeous…and totally different…and what do you mean I have to pick a favorite?’
And this? This is that second kind of reversible!
It’s called Correlation, it’s out today on ravelry, and you can get 10% off with the code REVERSIBLE for the first few days it’s out.
And I really think the hardest part will be deciding which side you like best. Because knitting reversible cables isn’t any harder than knitting regular cables!
No really, I promise. You know how with a lot of cables you’re just crossing knit stitches over knit stitches? Well reversible cables is largely crossing ribbing over ribbing. If you can do one, you can do the other (and if you don’t currently know how to do either, there’s no reason you can’t learn on reversible ones…cables are just knitting stitches out of order, easy peasy).
Now…as for deciding which side you like best? That I can’t help you with!
Clearly the best thing to do is to change it up depending on your mood that day!
And if you truly can’t decide? Well, there will be some mitts coming out later this month…you can always make the mitts too and wear the hat one way and the mitts the other!
I really like this pattern. Do you plan to release a cowl pattern as you mentioned you might? Or should I just buy the hat pattern and modify it? And what weight of yarn did you knit this with?
I may knit one, maybe, some day…but I suspect I wont’ do a pattern (because basically it’s ‘cast on more stitches than you’d use for a hat…neglect to decrease). And it’s sportweight, but the pattern includes gauge info for fingering/dk/light worsted too.
Brilliant, as usual, Hunter!!
