OVERVIEW
Diamond Diva was written by Sandi Rosner especially for Hand Dyed Diva, the hand dyed yarn line created by Sheri and Ladianne, the co-owners of Cheers To Ewe Yarn Shop, but you can use any sock/fingering weight yarn you adore!

Our Diamond Diva hat pattern is written in two sizes and benefits from the use of at least fairly sharply contrasting colors so you can show off your colorwork!
