Niobe is a perfect project for those sport weight or heavy fingering weight left-overs, in every color combination your heart desires. The pattern is written for three colors, but the sweet leaves and flowers colorwork looks just as good in two, four or even more colors (fade anyone?) depending on the effect you’re after.
Cute, warm and fun to make, it’s just THE hat for the (gift) season to come!
