The Winter Wave Hat was a spontaneous project inspired by the arrival of a new family member. I used two 100g skeins of bulky weight yarn in contrasting colors. After knitting the smaller (navy) hat, there was exactly enough yarn left to make a larger hat with the remaining yarn. This project features a simple stacked stitch motif worked in 2 colors in the round.
