Purple Pine
Purple Pine is a hat and cowl set, both pieces are crocheted in the round using the post-stitch technique.
The stitch pattern, which mimics the scale pattern of a pinecone, is stretchy, so bear this in mind when choosing the hat size. A little stem gives the hat a cute final touch, however, you can skip it.
This pattern was originally published in Crochet Now magazine, Issue 21.
