Pirate Booty You Can Knit!

Iron William Flint Says:

Aaarrrggghhh! Avast ye, maties! Be ye wantin' to live the pirate's life? Then ye're goin' to want to accessorize! If by chance ye've still got both yer legs, and two whole hands, and two good eyes - wait a minute! What kind of a pirate be ye?!?

Ah, well...we've all gotta start swashbucklin' somewheres, and it takes some time sailin' the seas afore ye can earn the markin's of a true pirate. 'Til then, ye can fake it in gran' style wi' this classic eye patch!

Knittin's a fittin' pastime for those dull moments between lootin' and plunderin', and this pattern's easy to follow, so there's no excuses for slackin' off here! So, pick up yer pointy sticks, grab that wad of wool, and cast on, while singin' Yo Ho! Yo Ho! A Pirate's Life fer Me!

The Dread Pirate Earnest Adds:

What Iron William is trying to point out to you is that our Knit Captain, Mad Jenny Bonney, has completed her work on what she's been calling The Pirate Project. Since her Booty Pal has received her goodies and the surprise won't be spoiled, the secret can now be revealed.

What Jenny has created is a simple pattern for a knitted, felted eye patch, in two sizes. Iron William is wearing the large one, which is suitable for most adult heads. I'm sporting the small one, which is an appropriate size for children.

The pattern is available as a free PDF download right from this site. You will need Adobe Reader to access the file, but that's no problem - it's also a free download, available here at Adobe itself.

So, what's your excuse, then? If you've been yearning for the life of a pirate, well, get your booty on and make your own custom knit eyepatch!
