This design was created for the Round 3,Winter Wonderland Battle Of The Stitches Competition.

It was the Judges Pick Winner.

A wonderful design much easier to work than it appears. The color work is all in complete rounds. You change color at the end of each round. It is the the way the stitches fall that allow it to almost shadow box the cable color behind the secondary color. I promise you, a determined beginner can make this hat.

The Pattern had not been offered by me previous to now, as I had given the Too Yarn Cute E-mag the exclusive to it through the end of 2014.

I had so much enjoyment in the Challenge, The Final Project is beautiful. I do hope you will enjoy making it.

The G hook I used was 4.25 mm, Ravelry’s listing is 4.00mm.
