No need to be afraid of complicated stitch patterns! Proactive lifelines make it easy to rip back a few rows and recover your stitches if you make a mistake, even in lace knitting.
The stitch used in my knitted sample is called “Pucker Cable” and is from the book Lace & Eyelets, edited by Erika Knight, from Interweave Press.
The yarn I used in my sample is KPC Glencoul DK.
The needles I used in my sample are Knitter’s Pride Zing from an interchangeable set.
This week we have a “classic” episode, we’ll be back next week with more new episodes!

Mountain Colors
Crazyfoot is our best-selling sock yarn. A blend of superwash merino and nylon, this durable sock yarn takes the dyes brilliantly. Soft enough for shawls and cowls, this reliable sock yarn has been a favorite amongst knitters for more than 20 years.

In this video, I demonstrate how I attach faux fur pompoms so that they are secure, yet removable when I wash the hat.
The hat pattern I show is Branta.
The details of my Branta hat are on my Ravelry page.
The faux fur pompoms I use are the 4″ size from this Etsy shop.
The button I use is from here on Amazon.
