Dotty the hat
“Dotty” the hat
By Woolly Hooligan Designs
Each year since I started knitting, I set a personal challenge to learn a new style of knitting. As it happens 2019 is my fair isle year.
This is my third design in this geometric, funky repetitive pattern inspired by Andrea Rangel. Please enjoy. I really enjoy the simplicity, yet “funkiness” of her designs.
I am also knitting my stash, and this yarn loveliness were sitting there, hidden, hoping and praying to be used. It’s a wonderful combo. My kidlets usually end up “stealing” my hats and cowls, I figured this super wash work horse yarn by Malabrigo Rios is perfectly suited.
YARN:
• 1 skein Malabrigo Rios in Bobby Blue (accent colour)
• 1 skein Malabrigo Rios in Glitter (used as main background colour)
NEEDLES: 16-inch circulars size 7 US and same size DPN’s for decreasing the crown
