Uses three of Sun Valley’s half skeins of MC worsted, one in each colour. (For the largest size, you’ll need a second mini skein of the MC.) If you’re making a substitution, it will use less than half a typical 100gm skein of equivalent worsted weight.

A quick and gratifying knit. Stranded colorwork, yes, but the most straightforward of patterns. Simple to memorize, and easy to execute. This would be an excellent first colorwork project.

Hat can be worn slouchy or more fitted.
