Capture the sun setting on the age of the dinosaurs with this Roarsome hat!!!! (sorry).

If you like this hat, be sure to check out my other dinosaur hat The Age of the Dinosaurs

Design features a Triceratops, Diplodocus / Brachiosaurus, Pterodactyl and tree. Repeated twice.

I recommend using Ladderback Jackard technique to make this hat as there would be a lot of floats to catch in this design if knitted stranded and the contrasting colour can make this hard to hide.

If you’re unsure, this video is the best I’ve seen for detailing:

I have included two versions of the chart. A plain version and a ladderback jackard version, which details the jackard stitches that will be on the needles for the colourwork section.
