See the ebook for a reduced price on the Nightscape set (hat and cowl).

Nightscape is a truly unisex hat with a simple but stunning motif that mimics the city skyline at night. The design was created for Shibui Knits’ new Nest yarn.

The fun colorwork design on this hat is worked using only one color on any given round.

Nightscape is a great introduction to colorwork without the hassle of carrying two strands of yarn at once.

The hat can be made with or without a pom pom. The cowl and hat are truly unisex and can be made with yarn held double or single and in many yarn weights. The size will vary depending on yarn weight and gauge. It’s a great way to use up stash and leftover yarn from other projects!

Choose either main color or contrast color for cast on and hat brim.

Mosaic (slip stitch) is fun and easy as colorwork goes, given that only one color of yarn is used at any time. The solid bands are worked in simple lace and texture stitches. Contrasting colors and a smooth yarn are recommended for the Mosaic colorwork to be vibrant and visible.

See this wonderful tutorial by Felicia at Sweet Georgia Yarns for working Mosaic colorwork using one of my shawl patterns.

The instructions are written and charted with explanation provided on how to read the simple colorwork chart. The pattern has been professionally tech edited and tested.
