Midnight hat
For those days or nights when you feel the instant urge to knit a quick colorwork project with a bold, fun, eye-catching motif.
PATTERN NOTES:
The Midnight hat is worked bottom up in the round.
It features a large colorwork motif, which comes in two sizes.
With the two different gauges given in the pattern, this results
in a total of four sizes to choose from overall.
The colorwork can be worked with only one contrast color for
a bold motif, or with up to three contrast colors, to add a bit
of a gradient effect to it.
For a little extra something, you can also choose to add a
pom-pom.
