I designed the Scraptacular Beanie to be a quick and fun stash-busting project with so many scrappy possibilities. Although up to nine colors can be used for this Fair Isle pattern, you only knit with two colors at a time. You can use four different colors for the zig zags or two. You can use a single color or three different colors for the dots near the crown. Go bold with bright hues or go for a more subtle look with a mix of neutrals. So many scraptacular combinations to choose from! Have fun picking the right one for you!
