I’m not sure if anyone else will catch it but at the 5:56 mark there is some clapping. No one was at home with me and I didn’t clap (you will see me put my hands together, but I 100% was not the one clapping)… spoooooky!

Batty About Bats Beret Knitalong
On October 1, 2023 we will officially celebrate the launch of my very first knitting pattern, The Batty About Bats Beret with a knit-a-long! If you are interested in joining the knit-a-long, please keep reading!
The Batty About Bats Beret is based on beret patterns of the 1930s and inspired by Halloween publicity photos, taken of starlets of the time, including Clara Bow! I have chosen to adorn the spooky beret with bats. Why? I may be obsessed with them!
The Batty About Bats Beret is knit in the round with worsted weight yarn and is suitable for advanced beginners and above. However, if you are a beginner and are confident in the swirling mysteries of this beret, then please give it a try!
The Batty About Bats Beret Knit-a-long will be hosted on Discord and Ravelry (please see links below). The knit-a-long will run from October 1st until October 31st (the most spookiest day of the year). The beret is a quick knit and you should be able to finish it in a few days!
