DESIGN
My new hat design Kalista is a soft and stylish solution for the cold weather. The idea behind was to create a hat that is easy, but not boring to make and to use the one stitch pattern for two different hats in different yarn weights - worsted and bulky. This design is a collaboration with wonderful MALABRIGO Yarn Co. Those yarns are widely available online and in many local yarn shops.
