Flapping Knitting

I keep on playing with multidirection knitting and hats.
As I was knitting the last one with bobbles I got to think about different relief elements, introducing the flaps...

So, instead of making bobbles I made flaps so I could thread yet another element, the I-cord...

finishing with a flower on top.

Here are "flaps" details.
Based on 5 stitches worked back and forth for 6 ridges of plain knit. This gave me the threading opportunity I was looking for.

Of course it also got me thinking and moving still further....
So I am already working on the next one....
No time to blog, just a frenzy of knitting...
