Inspired by traditional Fair Isle techniques, the Hinton Creek Hat features a lovely band of classic colorwork patterning, perfect for keeping one’s head toasty out in chilly nature.

The hat is knit in the round from the brim up. After the stranded colorwork section, the rest of the hat is worked in Stockinette Stitch. The decreases are somewhat rapid, giving a bit of a scrunched look to the crown of the hat.

Colorwork pattern is written and charted.
