DESCRIPTION

The Kindra Hat is the sister pattern to my Kindra Cowl. This twist on a traditional Nordic design was a way to play with color and use up scraps or mini skeins. It starts with a folded brim at the bottom and moves into a beginner friendly colorwork chart. You can choose a new color for each chart repeat or keep them all the same in order to fit your personal style.
