The Hypno Hat is a colorful, stash-busting, freeform inspired hat that is funky, fashionable, and as fun to make as it is to wear.

Afraid of bullion stitches? The pattern includes a bonus Bullion Photo Tutorial outlining my tried and true technique for making perfect bullion stitches.

Materials:
Yarn:

• Hat Spirals - 4 colors of worsted weight yarn (I like Knit Picks Swish and Wool of the Andes)
• Embellishment Spirals - 1-4 colors of sparkly, furry, mohairy, fun yarn
• Hat Band - Worsted, heavy worsted or chunky yarn (I like Knit Picks Cadena and Gloss)

Hooks:

• H (5.0mm) and I (5.5mm)

• Stitch markers (optional)

• Yarn needle

Skill Level: Intermediate - mainly due to the bullion stitch. Once you perfect it (with the help of the tutorial!), it is quite easy.

You can’t make just one, because everywhere you look, you’ll see amazing color combinations that you’ll have to try in hat form!
