Up & Up Slouch
All those arrows are going UP & UP!
This slouchy hat starts with a turned brim which is lined with mohair for extra warmth. Then, the all over stranded pattern forms a steady stream of arrows all the way up to the gathered crown.
Your finished hat will keep you warm and looking fabulous!
This is a great hat for someone new to stranded colorwork. None of the floats are long enough to require catching. The stranded pattern is easily memorized and after a few repeats, you will be able to work from memory and reading your stitches.
