Korra is named for the avatar in the Season 2 of the Avatar. As the avatar, Korra’s role is to maintain balance and so this Hat not only features aspects of each of the Elemental Hats but also provides a chance to create your own version, all the while being mindful of the balance within the fabric.

Featuring short row colourwork, each of the Elemental Hats is knit sideways and grafted. The pattern is presented as a map for the short rows - a directional chart - that will help guide you through the pattern.

The Elemental book and eBook contain detailed photographic tutorials, and individual patterns contain illustrated tutorials.

Korra wurde nach dem Avatar in Folge 2 der Avatar-Serie benannt. Korras Aufgabe als Avatar ist es, für Ausgewogenheit zu sorgen – deshalb reflektiert diese Mütze nicht nur Aspekte aus allen anderen Modellen der „Elemental“-Kollektion, sondern bietet auch die Möglichkeit, ein eigenes Mützendesign zu schaffen, alles unter dem Blickpunkt der Ausgewogenheit von Form und Sitz.

Alle Mützen aus der „Elemental“-Kollektion werden seitwärts mit farbigen Akzenten in verkürzten Reihen gearbeitet und im Maschenstich zusammengefügt. Als Wegbegleiter durch die verkürzte-Reihen-Abschnitte enthält die Anleitung ein hilfreiches Strickrichtungsdiagramm.
