Lovebirds, lovebirds, oh how sweet you are! This new hat design is sized from Baby to Adult and features your favorite colorwork from the Lovebirds Sweater & Cowl designs. Hat is worked from the bottom up and also utilizes three fibers, a fingering weight held with lace for a gorgeous halo alongside a colorchanging handspun. Feel free to go sport weight yarn by itself if doubling isn’t you’re thing!
Hat is shown in Adult Small with approximately 2”/5 cm negative ease. Choose the size that is smaller than your actual head circumference. This design has extra length for a slouchy fit. If you prefer a more snug beanie fit, omit 2”/5cm of length before beginning Crown Shaping. Pattern is written for intermediate level knitters comfortable with stranded colorwork; stitch pattern is charted.
