Have you ever wondered why something so beautiful is fixed to a ceiling? Swing from the beautiful showpiece with this chandelier inspired topper. It’s a hat with a well-dressed table (the brim) but an amazing chandelier up top (the crown). Designed to use up left over bits, or specially purchased tiny skeins, the magic it creates in the endless color combinations, mixed with the whimsical but manageable colorwork will dare you to not put it down until the last stitch is complete.

Skills Used: Long tail cast-on, knit & purl stitch, decreasing, small bits of stranded colorwork.

Finished Dimensions: 8” brim to top of crown.

Materials:
• MC: 150 yards; Two CC’s: 26 yards each, fingering weight yarn
