The Squiggles can now be purchased as a pair.

This matches the Squiggle Cowl. Just like its cowl, the hat wiggles over your ears but out of your eyes so that you keep the important parts warm but not blind yourself in the process.

Row gauge of 24 rows per 4” is important for the band while the pattern gauge is for the crown of the hat.

The pattern has been updated as of 11/06/2009 to include written directions in addition to the charted ones.

If you want to do the 2 color version, the brim takes 56-62 yards and the crown 37-45 yards of yarn. Its a great way to use of scraps of your worsted weight yarns.
