“Real leaders lead with love.” - Cleo Wade

I was inspired by this quote to create this hat to encourage my fellow Americans to vote in 2020. I believe in love, not hate, and hope we can show more of that going forward.

This pattern is worked in the round, from the bottom up.
This pattern uses the fair isle colorwork knitting technique. When doing colorwork, ensure that your stitches are not knit too tightly, or your hat will be too small. I find that gently stretching your work as you go helps, as well as steam blocking the finished product. To view a tutorial on how to join a contrasting color, see my YouTube channel at yt.vu/+woollybearknits.

This uses about half a skein of Lion Brand Wool Ease Thick and Quick for the main color, and about 17 yards of contrasting color (perfect use for scraps)!
