ABOUT THE DESIGN/S
I visited SKIPTON (UK) in 2018, where the annual YARNDALE festival is held, an amazing festival (in a beautiful town) which I was very privileged to be able to attend.

Another highlight of my stay, was visiting a local yarn store, where I purchased some beautiful locally produced yarn that became the inspiration for the original pattern/s. I planned to design a Christmas accessory with it, but I wanted the design to also be versatile enough that it could be knit in non traditional colours for everyday wear. I think I achieved that. (see projects for some lovely versions).

SIZING: to fit HEAD sizes
(cm) 45-50 // 50-55 // 55-60
(in) 18-20 // 20-22 // 22-24

This 2023 EDITION in 3 sizes, is slightly different to the original pattern document. 1 chart has been deleted & 2 new charts have been added, giving a total of 3 CHARTS to choose from. 2 of the charts use3 colours (Version 1) & 1 (Version 2) uses 2 colours.

Written instructions are now also included for each CHART option. Floats are kept short & the stitch pattern repeats quickly become intuitive. There are different rbbed bands (interchangeable) worked, to also keep things interesting.

Enjoy your Skipton ADVENTure!
