What do you see when you look at this hat? Blocks? Stairs? Spirals? DNA strands? Try turning the picture right or left. Do you see something else? It seems people see different things and it changes at different angles. Whatever you see, this geometric shape hat is a super easy knit and a great introduction to stranded color work knitting. Because the color sections are small you won’t need to “catch floats” across the back of your work. There’s something rhythmic and intuitive about the pattern that makes it flow along quickly. Then, the crown is worked in stripes that spiral and disappear into the top of the hat. It looks complicated but it’s so simple. No one will believe it’s your first color work project!
