Thoughts on How to Get Started in Designing a Fair Isle Crown

I was asked on Ravelry if I knew of a pattern book of designs just for the crown of a hat by someone who is on a journey to become certified as a master knitter and who wanted to design her own Fair Isle hat pattern. I had been studying design theory for the crown portion of these hats for many years. Her question led me to spend a few days summarizing all my thoughts so I could share with her what I knew at the time without ever having designed a crown myself. This was a private video that I think will be ok to share in public in case it might be helpful to others. Please feel free to offer comments on anything I have said which offers other viewers more help than I have here 🙏🏻
