FRIDAY PUZZLE — I met Sarah Sinclair online when she posted a free knitting pattern for a Spelling Bee beanie on social media and tagged both me and Sam Ezersky, the editor of the game. As someone who knits, I thought this was fabulous, so I included a link to the pattern in a Wordplay column.

Since then, Ms. Sinclair has created patterns for a Wordle hat, a Crossword streak hat and more. She also made her New York Times Crossword debut in 2022, and has had bylines in the Universal Crossword and the Modern Crossword, a part of Puzzle Society.

This is Rafael Musa’s 10th puzzle in The New York Times and, from what Ms. Sinclair says in her notes below, he is an excellent collaborator.
