Product Details

I definitely have a weakness for farm yarns, and I often find myself in a festival booth with two different skeins in hand, unable to decide if I will get the light gray or the dark gray - and desperately wanting both because they are equally beautiful and squishy and came from a wonderful vendor I want to support. So here’s an excuse to buy both!

Stranded colorwork creates a beautifully sophisticated hat when you mix those light and dark shades together. The repeat here is striking and addictive, and easier than you think. Plus the way the design begins and ends allows for the brim to be one color and the “star” at top to appear in the other color. A pom is optional, but kind of seals the deal for me.

Note that the yarn used is listed as a sport weight yarn, but I love how it knits up in a Worsted Gauge. If substituting yarn, and not in the mood to modify things, you will want a light worsted.

There are instructions in the pattern for modifying.

A suggested substitute yarn is shown below.
