Mesa
Thank you for supporting my small business.
Pattern is offered at 20 % off till end of August 2020.
Inspiration:
The hat was born to test this super funky pattern. I was intrigued in knitting this “illusion” pattern from Mrs. Walkers book, but of course had to “hooliganize” it. The oranges remind me of Arizona desert, the funky Mesa landscape thus the name. I am always drawn to shapes, geometric play, and visual interest.
I would advise to choose bold, bright and heavily contrasting colours.
Malabrigo does not disappoint in their abundance of choices. I love this fiber. Soft, full of texture and perfectly holding shape. It’s perfect for this pattern.
Enjoy. This knit is super fun.
