Original Pattern: Physalis
Knitter Extraordinaire: Miyayo (Ravelry ID, blog)
Mods: Used the leaf stitch design from the original shawl to create a slightly slouchy hat with great texture, also went down in gauge from Aran to DK. Details on her project page can be found here.
What Makes This Awesome: I love Miyayo's take on this gorgeous pattern, and turned it into a stunning 1 skein project. I am a bit jealous of this, because who doesn't want to have a fabulous one skein project that looks this beautiful?! The crown decreases are wonderfully one, as well. The next time I look at a highly textured shawl, I'll be thinking about how well it might turn into a beautiful, slouchy hat. This definitely gives me ideas....

Gasp ... It's knitted items like this that make me want to learn how to knit better than I currently can. How gorgeous!
Gorgeous. WOW.
Epic! Just love the hat and the color.
Awesome. Those crown decreases are just perfect. And the bright colour! Love it.
As much fun as the 8,000 baby presents I'm working on are, I've been looking for a challenge... I think this is gonna be it. So gorgeous and JUST FOR ME!
