The Peak of Summer Beanie was designed to showcase the colors of hand-dyed yarn. It was inspired by string lights swooping from the trees during a backyard summer soiree. Simple ribbing and stockinette stitch come together with a touch of drama in the twisted stitches that rise up to form a “peak.” This hat is knit in the round from the bottom brim to the top.

The pattern includes instructions for 3 different weights of super bulky yarn; Light Super Bulky, Medium Super Bulky, and Chunky Super Bulky. See sample yarns below for examples of these 3 different yarn weights.
