The Annapurla hat is named after the 10th highest mountain in the world, and the highest massif in the Annapurna range, hovering at 8,091 m. This hat was inspired during a 15-day trek in 2016 through the beautiful Annapurna circuit in Nepal. Annapurna is derived from Sanskrit meaning “the giver of nourishment”.

The Diyi mitts are worked in the round using Magic Loop technique on circular needles. They feature a simple skyp stitch across the front hand side and stockinette stitch along the back hand side. Diyi means ‘first’ in Mandarin, which is fitting as this is my first published pattern on Ravelry!
