Peargir Nightshade Gnome Hat Knitting Pattern

Peargirl Knits Patterns.Gnomes are mostly peaceful beings ~ 7 times stronger than a man and have better eyesight than a hawk. Averaging only 15 centimeters tall, and living on a vegetarian diet, I like to imagine them fashioning hats from the very food they eat. The Nightshade family includes Peppers and Eggplant…knit this hat in red, yellow or green for a Chili Pepper Hat or knit it in a deep purple for an Eggplant Hat. Knit in the round from the top down, the Nightshade Gnome Hat knits up quickly in one piece, and the twisted pyramid rib pattern for the cuff adds a beautiful embossed texture. The pattern includes detailed instructions for 3 sizes. Suggested yarn Malabrigo Yarn Worsted Yarn weight Aran (8 wpi) ?
