LOVE TRIANGLE is a fun colorwork hat knit in three vibrant shades of DK yarn. It features a geometric design that is easy to memorize, creating a striking, warm fabric, and an optional pompom on top.

LOVE TRIANGLE comes in two sizes: a cosy beanie, or a relaxed slouchy hat. This pattern contains instructions for both. You can easily knit this hat with yarn you already have in stash, and get creative with multiple colour combinations.

SIZES

Beanie (Slouchy) to fit an average adult head, 50-55cm/20-21.75”.
The length of the hat is 20cm/8“ (23cm/9”).

YARN

Three shades of DK yarn, about 30grs (40grs) of MC, 25grs (30grs) of CC1 and 15grs of CC2. The samples were knit in ColourMart Extra Fine Merino DK yarn, which gives 460 yards every 150grs. You can substitute it for any yarn that gives a similar yardage of 150 yards/50grs.
