Marled yarns are all the rage now. Create your own marled yarn in a Cacophony of color. The stripes or colorwash are created by holding 3 fingering yarns together as one. It is an easy technique that creates exciting knit fabrics. One yarn will be carried throughout all rounds to create the marl and the other shades will be changed to create the stripes or the colorwash. The color is the star here, so the stitch pattern is easy and relaxed. The number of shades is flexible. You can use 2-10 shades of color. Dive into your stash for shades that match your favorite team, a new winter coat or remnants of a favorite project.
Cacophony is ideal for gifting as it is easy to fit and offers a couple styling options. The body is worked deep enough to allow a fold-back brim to keep those ears warm on particularly windy days. It can also be worn down slouchy style. The detailed hat crown finishes with a closure that makes it completely reversible. The pattern details 4 sizes from child to adult.
