Excellent for using up last bits of yarn against a plain background or beautiful on its own as a two-color hat, this pattern has a stranded colorwork design of diamonds flowing from one color to another. Gently skimming the head and resting at the earlobes, this hat comes in size XS, Small, Medium, and Large/XL. Perfect for everyone. Simply knitting a size up and/or 1-2” (2.5-5 cm) more before shaping will give you a slouch fit, or add a pom-pom for extra flair.
