A nod to Leonardo da Vinci, the creator of the artistic technique known as chiaroscuro, this hat
playfully combines the contrasts between light and dark coloways along with two different twisted
ribbings. Variations are written for both beanie and folded brim options, as well as four different
color sequences to create a hat that works for the entire family. Perfect for color sets or those bits of
worsted weight yarn you’ve had waiting to become something fabulous.
