What am I missing?
Gaddani
I’ve published 101 patterns! To thank everyone for supporting me, I’m running a promotion of 50% off any self-published pattern until I publish my next pattern, bringing the total up to 102. This only applies to individual self-published patterns, but man, there are a lot of those! Pass on the news!
Just use the code 101.
Named for the largest shipbreaking yard in Pakistan, Gaddani was styled after the hats and head wraps the shipbreakers wear to protect themselves. As I created the hat, I was grateful to be making it to protect my head from winter chills.

The work of photographer Gmb Akash was central to this design and to my understanding of hard labor and industry in developing countries:
