I challenge you to join me, love your stash, and take the 20in20 challenge this year!!

Welcome to the 20in20 collection! It is carefully curated to use those gorgeous skeins that are languishing in your stash, waiting for the perfect project. Each project uses approximately 100g of yarn, and are in a variety of yarn weights. Patterns will be released every 2-3 weeks and you can expect a variety of accessory patterns including hats, cowls, mitts and even a shawl or two! Follow along on Instagram for a sneak peek of upcoming designs!

The slipped stitch pattern used in this design reminds me of the parallel lines of stitching visible on the edges of Grosgrain ribbon! With varied stripe width, paired with the slipped stitches, this hat holds your interest all the way through! Top it off with a unique and adorable polka dot pom pom (instructions included)!

This pattern was originally written to use up to 9 different yarns, making it perfect for using up small leftovers from other projects. It is meant to be a bit oversized and slouchy, and it will stretch to fit a range of sizes.
