I initially made this skull cap with the arrival of twin boys in my family. I wanted it to look celebratory. The slipped stitches are knit in a contrasting color to resemble confetti.

This hat looks great with any two yarn colors. The trim is knit with the contrasting color. The hat portion is knit with the main color unless cc is indicated in the pattern.
