I designed this pattern to use a special gift of fleece from castlemilk. She had gifted me some fleece from Letison, who is a 3/4 Shetland x 1/4 Blue-faced Leicester, with the most magnificent multi-tonal grey coat that simply had to be shown off. This hat is the result.

This is my second attempt at pattern design and first attempt at slipped stitch colour work. Feedback appreciated!

Simple stash-busting earwarmer/headband with the most basic colour work possible.

Requires 12 stitch markers.
