The Cassiopeia Hat is a reversible, two-layer, extra warm and cozy hat that is fun and easy to knit. With a simple, pretty lace pattern, the bottom layer shows through, allowing you to play with two colours without any tricky colourwork. Because of its unique construction, there’s no ribbing. With around 100 yards of yarn needed per colour, this is a great stash buster.
