There's Fungus Among Us
Because who wouldn’t want a mushroom fairy garden on their head??
This sweet, stranded color work hat is worked from the ribbing up and can be made with either all small mushrooms or with 1 larger ‘shroom intermingled with the smaller (as shown above).
The longer ribbing can be either folded under (as shown) or upward, or you can work a shorter ribbing easily. Add a pompom or tassel (maybe with a little felted gnome on the end?), and your favorite fungus will now grace the head of the lucky wear-er—it’s even better than a bowl of sautéed portobellos.
Gauge: 25sts & 26 rows/4” (blocked) in color pattern stst on size 6 needles (or size to obtain gauge). Ribbing measures 28 sts and 28 rows/4” unstretched.
Finished Measurements: Sizes XS(Sm, Med) measure 20 ½(23, 25 ½)” in circumference; Depth of hat is approx. 8 ½ ” from ribbing to crown.
Materials:
1 skein each of the Main Color (MC) and Contrasting Color (CC) in Wollmeise DK (468 yds/200g, MC shown in Natur/CC shown in Vamp)
Approximately 80(90, 100) yards of the MC, and 135(150, 165) yards of the CC in light-DK weight yarn for the version with folded ribbing. Working a shorter, unfolded ribbing will only require ~100(110, 125) yds of the CC.
