Thanks to everyone for your comments. I did not expect that virtually everyone's favorite lace project would be a shawl or stole! But perhaps I should have-- after all, a shawl is perfect for showing off beautiful lace stitches without worrying about pesky things like shaping, armholes, etc.
I was also touched by how many lace projects had a very special story associated with them-- including that of Robin in VA, who is the winner of Stitch 'N Bitch Superstar Knitting. Robin, please email me your mailing address so I can get your book in the mail to you!
The Vespa Hat is a fun, quick project-- and fun to wear, with earflaps to keep your ears warm, a loose fit to prevent the dreaded "hat head," and an optional ponytail hole. Ear flaps and back of neck are worked flat; after front stitches are cast on, hat is worked in the round. See more patterns
