Pattern #12 in the original U.S. National Park inspired line of beanies
by Nancy Bates

A cross section of a petrified tree reveals a beautiful kaleidoscope of unexpected colors: lavender, red, green, yellow, grey and more. Remarkably, even after millions of years, most logs still maintain the look of bark on the outside. Absolutely fascinating! This beanie (worked in the round from the bottom up) begins with several rows of seed stitch immediately following the ribbing, representing the texture of the “bark” before moving on to the smooth bands of color contained in the body of the hat.
