designer doodling

All my knitting and crochet projects are complete, today! Hard to believe, but true. In order for me to catch-up on the writing portion of my design adventure, I made the statement:
NO NEW PROJCTS GO ON A NEEDLE UNTIL ALL THE PAST PATTERNS ARE WRITTEN.
That means completed and published.
I am the procrastinator when it comes to writing, so I had to make that statement out loud.

That does not mean I can't create. While gong through my e-mails this morning and making a Christmas shopping list for later today, I was doodling.
Look! Ruben's Alpaca Hat will have Aztec Designs! After designing the x's and o's, I have colored the paper just to get the real impression.

I think this will be a Great Hat!
He wants the hat to be a square beret with ear flops. I know this is probably hard to imagine but trust me, this hat will be truly original, warm and beautiful.

knitting in the round requires both designs to be compatible
144 can be divided by 16 = 9 and 12 = 12
192 can be divided by 16 = 12 and 12 = 16
