the first Big Knit hat of the week 2010

Peas-ed to meet you, mon petit pois.

We've already had thousands of beautiful hats delivered to us here at Fruit Towers, but this week's hat of the week goes to the lovely Suzy from Weymouth. Whilst her prize hat shows peas in a pod, the array of little gems that she's sent us have been far from that, with a pygmy goat and a beautiful little daisy also being amongst the collection.

Thank you Suzy, a case of smoothies will be on their way to you now.

V cute! I've issued a 3 line whip to my knitting class so hopefully some more hats will be winging their way to you soon!

Oh that is so cute, 3 peas in a pod.

Do you have a pattern for this to share?

Hi Daisy, glad you like the peas, aren't they sweet? It was sent in to us by a consumer, but I've asked if she can send us the pattern for it if she has it. Watch this space. In the meantime, why not try our banana pattern?

Can't do the banana pattern has I don't have 4ply wool in that color and my local if you can call it that wool shop only sales baby wool in 4ply.

I think tis hat should be named "Peas One Day"

I've done the peas but mine turned out wrong and had a hell of a time trying glue the wobbly eyes on.

I've done the banana but because I don't know how to pick up horizonal stiches, I knitted them all seperate and sowed them on after wards. I think it still looks cool though.
