I wish glitter was my middle name, so when I first saw the Grand Opera Yarn by Nashua Handknits, I knew it had to be mine. Once I had the yarn firmly in my grasp, I thought of what I would want to do with it, and this hat immediately sprang to mind. The glittering metallic ribbon running through the yarn brings out the stitch pattern wonderfully, and by using a yarn with just a hint of sparkle, you can bring out your inner glitterbug without going too over the top.

Knit in the round, with a stitch pattern that is a cinch to memorize, you’ll be rocking this slouchy hat in no time at all.
