My daughter was the first to steal my heart, then my son was next. This matching hat set features not quite identical hats. One hat has a band with a heart “cut-out”, and the second hat holds that heart. Instructions are included to make both hats, Worked from the bottom up, flat, then seamed. The heart shapes can be make using intarsia or stranded knitting. This is a fantastic knit for that skein of variegated yarn that you don’t know what to do with!
