Adelaide is both a textured and colourwork hat. It was inspired by my friend’s daughter, yep, you guessed it, Adelaide. It uses right and left twist stitches to create a pattern similar to trees (Adelaide was in the Forestry program at school) and also uses stranded colourwork to represent Adelaide’s artistic side.

Sizing:
- Will fit a head circumference up to 23”. Good for Teen to Adult

Gauge:
- 22 sts per 4”
