The vintage Bee Stitch gives this hat great texture and is fun and easy to knit - confident beginners can be successful. It’s so quick to knit up you’ll want to make the coordinating cowl for a fabulous duo. With two skeins of DK yarn you’ll have more than enough to make both. The samples were made with Homer from Olive & Two Ewe. Colors are Moody and Egg Basket, inspired by the Maine Coastline.

You’ll knit with both colors by alternating every 2 rows during pattern stitches. Watch for color changes in Bold print, hope this helps. Change to dpn’s as stitch count gets smaller.
