These cute little hats are a joy to knit, watching the colours start to swirl and stripe. Knit them using a variegated yarn with long colour change, or two different coloured yarns for distinct stripes.

The hats are knit sideways and are shaped with short rows. Provisional Cast On and Kitchener Stitch bind off result in an almost seamless finish, especially after felting.

After felting they are perfect for adding some embroidery and beads. Unleash your creativity!
