This hat is perfect for that gorgeous variegated yarn you’re not sure what to do with. Even better it can be worked up with fingering weight yarn held double so it is perfect for all those single skeins of sock yarn we have floating around in our stash.

I was inspired by Sarah Stevens’ Two Lane Highway Rage socks to design a slip stitch patterned shawl and this is what I used as swatch. I loved the hat enough to write up the pattern for you and hope you enjoy knitting it up!
