SAFF Class- Caribbean Bobbles Hat

Once again, I will be teaching classes at SAFF, in Fletcher, NC. This will be my 6th time teaching at the festival, and I have an entire new roster of classes.

Starting today, and every day, I am going to feature one of my SAFF classes. Check out the SAFF website if you're going to be in the area Oct 30-Nov 1. It's a fantastic festival!

Today's feature is the Caribbean Bobble Hat, which I designed while on a knitting cruise, to, (duh) the Caribbean. The class will focus on knitting back backwards to make the bobbles. Here is my original, modeled by my lovely granddaughter.
