SHORT OVERVIEW

The Henny Penny Chicken Hat is worked in the round with a circular needle, bottom-up. Change to double pointed needles when necessary. First work rib, then work simple stockinette stitch with colorwork.

The hat is knit with only two colors at a time, making it easier to knit.
Additional colors will be added later using the duplicate stitch technique.

Only hat pattern (doesn’t include the pattern for the matching sweater)
