About the Pattern
As usual you get a pattern with lots of photos and guidance helping you out.Cro-hook
The main part of the pillow is worked in rows back and forward. You will need a cro-hook / double-ended hook for this. With or without cable. This also means that the length of your cro-hook doesn't matter much, as you don't have to do a full forward pass before you start a return pass.
Inner Pillow
In the pattern I suggest using an inner pillow. This is optional as the stitches are tight enough to hold the filling in. Personally I think and inner pillow gives you a more expensive looking pillow, and it will of course also help the pillow stay in shape. So instructions for making an inner pillow are included. And it is NOT difficult to make one.Adjustable
The pattern also includes instructions for adjusting the pillow size any way you want. So it can fit any inner pillow you have already or whatever you decide you need.Testers
It has been quite a journey to make this pattern. No less than three testers have helped me out and once again, I'm surprised how much testing can improve a pattern. Thank you to Marjolein, Ewa and Karen!Selling Finished Products

The yarn bowl has three slits at the top, which keeps your yarn in place. The bowl can be carried as a little bag and you can easily remove any yarn from the bowl without cutting the yarn. Due to it being felted, it is relatively heavy for its size, which helps it stay, where you want it.

Did you ever think about how many different crocheted ribbings there exist? I think most of us just do whatever a pattern tells us - or you find a page telling you 'how to crochet a ribbing'. As in one ribbing.
Being conscious about the different kinds of ribbing is an advantage, if you want to be able to change an existing pattern or make your own design.
Then I thought. Why not make a crochet version? So, her it is :)

The other day my 3½ year old ran away with the hat and wouldn't return it. Later he asked, if he could have one too - a red one! So the happy mom made one more red hat.
I didn't write the original pattern for small kids, but it can easily be adjusted.
Here is what to do.
YEAH! A new pattern has been released! It is a sideways hat. Made completely from the Top Stitch Rib pattern. I've nursed the top, so it is ribbed almost all the way to the top center.You will find the pattern at www.lovecrochet.com.
A tester said: "It's is a very light weight feeling on my head when compared to a hat made in regular crochet stitches. And much stretchier. Just all around more comfortable."
So what to wear, when you want something special, fancy and warm - and fur isn't an option?
