The Continuous Waratah is a stranded colourwork beanie with an all over pattern and many fewer long floats compared with the other patterns in this series.
It was designed for the 40th anniversary of the Knitters Guild NSW.
Worked seamlessly in the round, this design uses only two contrasting colours of 4 ply fingering weight /sock yarn at a time and features a corrugated ribbing band.

The pattern includes both written instructions and a colourwork chart. Instructions are provided for one size.

The sample shown used approx 70m of both colours.
