Time to double-down on hat making. We had an extremely mild fall here, and it has spoiled me a bit. I stepped outside this morning to take The Boy to school and wowza! It is cold out there. Time for a new hat. I randomly pulled out these colors to make this Winter Peaks Hat and I am IN LOVE. Don’t they look beautiful together?
My new labels came the week so this hat is the first to sport them. Aren’t they adorable? I absolutely love them. I agonized over deciding between white or black and I’m glad I got black! They look so cute. They are made from satin ribbon, so they are soft, durable and washable. My husband says they make my hats look “super legit, ” haha!

Hi Beth, how did you come up with the name Whistle & Ivy?
Hi Michele! I came across it while reading some very old nursery rhymes. It’s called “My Father He Left Me Three Acres of Land” and the phrase jumped out and just felt familiar and right. It’s hard to explain, but I just knew it when I read it. (I was brainstorming titles at the time).
Love this pattern. Made it in black, grey & white for my colour phobic friend
Haha! That sounds pretty! :)
Could you please tell me what the multiples are so I can make a matching scarf for my granddaughter. Thank you
Multiples of 5
