Modification Monday: Girly Wurm


Original Pattern: Wurm

Knitter Extraordinaire: Jaana (Ravelry ID, Blog)

Mods: Added a picot edging and eyelet details to the ribbing for the body of the hat. Details are on her project page, here.

What Makes This Awesome: The Wurm pattern is so lovely and simple, it's great to see how a few small tweaks can yield such beautifully different results. I absolutely love the eyelet between the ridges of garter stitch, and the picot trim looks so pretty. I love this mod!! Might need to make one for myself when the weather turns cool again....

Lovely. I would never have considered the original pattern, but this mod looks really pretty.

Ooh! This is a good one! I've seen this pattern a million times, but this version is definitely my favorite so far.

Ooh, I love the eyelet details! The mods really transform the hat, I think I like it better than the original! Another one to add to my ever expanding queue... :)
