Huenique Hat
Inspired by the range of hues in stunning variegated yarn, yet never really sure what I wanted to create with those skeins, I began searching for the perfect stitch pattern that would be a pleasure to knit and would highlight all the magnificent shades too!
Enamored with these unique colorways, I discovered a stitch pattern that would break up color pooling in a fun and exciting way, and the Huenique Hat was brought to life!
The pattern is a breeze to remember with its simple yet engaging 4-round repeat. This is the kind of project that will leave you daydreaming of the yarn you’ve been saving for just the right design.
Instructions are included for both worsted weight and bulky yarn, so let your hues shine and your imagination roam free!
