February 2007 This is the perfect way to combine ponytails with warmth. Yet another Knitty pattern: Shocking pink coif. I used a 50% wool, 50% soysilk yarn called Gianna (by South West Trading Company; colour 048), which is soft and warm but had lots of knots. The main part was knit on a 5.5mm needle; the i-cord on a 4.5mm needle. The pattern has two st. st. straps that tie under the chin. On one side, I changed the st. st. to a 2-stitch i-cord and sewed the end into a loop; on the other side, I sewed on a button. And I love it.
