The People Hat Pattern is a stranded, color work project. What some refer to as Fair Isle (although I’ve heard tell that aficionados feel very strongly about this term being bandied about loosely), the process is like knitting a picture: with each row, as the family waits for dinner, the picture grows. It is truly addicting.
