A colorwork hat knit from the brim up, worked in two colors of sport-weight yarn, with a rolled brim for a little extra flair. A good project for colorwork beginners with few long floats. The decreases were designed to minimize interference with the leaf design, but may require a little extra attention.

Approximately 150 yards needed of the main color, and approximately 75 yards of contrasting color.
