Hey knitters! Inspired by an upcoming vest design -that I’ll be posting soon- I present to you this cute hat! It is a simple touque with a geometrical design, composed of squares separated by lines that meet into a vanishing point at the top. It comes in two sizes that I’m sure fits all, and can be knitted using light or dark colored yarn. I made this hat with this particular mesh pattern that I’ve been meaning to try for a long time. Needless to say, because mesh patterns are transparent, the hat actually needs less than 2 oz (50 g) of yarn. So grab any leftover yarn you see on your shelf, and start making this hat! It could be a very nice Christmas gift, as it is almost time to plan and do projects for winter occasions. Stay safe and healthy, and have a lovely summer!
