We want to welcome you to the Mystery Hat Knit Along. This was inspired by 2013 Arizona Yarn Crawl.

The picture of a lovely women dressed at the height of fashion in the early 1900’s is not the hat you will be making in the KAL. Give me a sigh….

Now that you know what you are not making, here is some important information about how we will guide you to making a hat that is much nicer.

The Clues will be released on Ravelry on the below dates (time may vary)

Clue 1: Monday, Oct. 14
Clue 2: Friday, Oct. 18
Clue 3: Monday, Oct. 21
Clue 4: Friday, Oct. 25
