			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It is not my hope to offer you patterns, and pattern generators, and video stitch guides merely for you to mimic what I&#8217;ve created.</p>
<p>No &#8212; my dreams are bigger than that.  It is my wish to give you the tools you require to design for yourself .  <a href="http://www.artofcrochet.com/">Art of Crochet</a> has a <a href="https://s.p9.hostingprod.com/@iamintheloop.com/artofcrochet/ssl/patterns/beanieI.php">Beanie Pattern Set</a> up for sale.  This is the first fully functional mix-and-match pattern set we are releasing.  If you love what we are doing &#8212; please support our endeavors by purchasing your own copy today.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Here is a peek at what is inside:</p>
<p><strong>Pattern Notes:</strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana">(1) The beginning rounds of the hat, which contain all of the increases, are worked in the back loop only without a turn.  </span></p>
<p>(2) The increases are placed in different locations for each round &#8212; this creates a near perfect circle.  When the increases are stacked up on each other, it creates corners and the result is a polygon with straight edges.  In addition, the increases are much more noticeable when they are near each other, yet almost invisible when well interspersed.</p>
