This pattern is a simple stranded hat knit in 3 colors. This hat makes a wonderful gift for your favorite marathon finisher. Reward your friends and family with a unique handmade keepsake after all their hard training. The design was created for my sister Joan, who continues to set new marathon personal records with every race.

This pattern requires knowledge of stranded knitting, duplicate stitch, knitting in the round, Kfb (knit front and back increase), and K2tog decrease.
