INTRODUCTION FROM KNITTY

Uljhan is Hindi for “Entanglement” or “In two minds”. This fun beanie features a play on a 2x2 rib, using two colors of yarn. It also uses a 1x1 cable at specified intervals, to form a pretty pattern over the body of the beanie. The pattern was born primarily out my necessity of a warm hat for my son. The colorwork makes for a very cozy inner fabric and should keep my son warm and toasty in the extreme winters here in Canada. The choice of the two colors of yarn highlights the stitch pattern, and the ribbing provides a great fit for the wearer.

• Title is misspelt on Knitty as Ulijhan
• There are some places where numbers for only six sizes are given instead of seven. Here are the corrections:
• Under Cuff - Work Ribbing as set for 1(1, 1.5, 1.5, 1.5, 1.75, 1.75) inches.
