{inspired by}

I was trawling Ravelry looking for a simple project not so long ago and I came across "Norby" by Gudrun Johnston.  Loved it!  Love the slouch, the tassel, the zig zag...

The pattern calls for 4ply fingering weight, but I wanted to use up some {stash - huzzah!} 8ply alpaca I had.  I was pretty sure I had the stitch pattern in an old Harmony Guide, and having knitted a hat or two in my time, I felt reasonably confident I could make something decent-looking.

ta-da!
