Pattern Description from Spindlicity.com: “I am not normally drawn to warmer tones, but lately, their sunshiny brightness just make me smile. Instead of falling back on my favorite cool shades of blue green and purple, I’ve been spinning up a storm of delicious yellows and oranges.

This hat is made with a rich sunflower yellow Corriedale, in a monochromatic colorway. While the pattern would work with a variegated, I would avoid anything with a lot of strong contrast. Instead, consider analogous or solid shades that won’t compete too heavily with the lace pattern.“

Materials: 36 grams of Corriedale from Spunky Eclectic, spun on 1.9 ounce Golding Spindle. Final yarn weight: 2 ply, 14 WPI

Needles:

  • US #8, 12 or 16” circular needle
  • Set of US #8 DPNs

Finished Dimensions:

  • Circumference: 18.5” 21”, 23.3”
  • Height: 8” 8”, 8.5”
