Valley Yarn Propolis is worked on smaller needles for extra density; you’ll be cozy in this honeycomb-patterned hat using Valley Superwash Super Bulky or Becket. It works up with lightning speed with this super bulky yarn while providing an easy introduction to slip-stitch colorwork; it also makes a perfect last-minute gift.
