Have some gorgeous handspun yarn but not sure what to do with it? This fun and funky hat showcases art yarn framed between purl ridges. Pattern is quite stretchy, so fits teens to adults.

Hat can be worn slouchy as shown or spritzed with water and blocked over a dinner plate for a tam like appearance.

YARN REQUIREMENTS:
1 skein TreasureGoddess Treasured Thick & Thin art yarn or art yarn with approx 6-8wpi (approx 45 yards)
Black worsted weight wool yarn, approx 75 yards (1/2 a skein of Cascade 220)

How crazy or mild you’d like to be is determined by the texture & colors of the art yarn you use. Have fun!
