Description I have ALWAYS wanted a hat with a Latvian braid and as soon as I felt this yarn in my hands for the first time, I knew this was it! It has such a gorgeous stitch definition, texture, and hand feel. PERFECT for a cozy warm hat for the wintertime and to make that Latvian braid pop!

Yarn Quantities If you want to make your Latvian Braid with that contrast color pop, you will need 2 skeins of Bulkylicious. With 2 skeins, you can easily make 2 Braided Bulky Beanies of opposite colors.

We do have KITS available on the shop! Or shop Bulkylicious, we have tons of yarn combos!

The pattern includes written instructions and video tutorials.
