Hot Head
Pattern description from Stitch ‘n Bitch: “This hat is a must-have in any knitter’s repertoire because what’s better than kicking out a warm, snuggly hat in just two hours? The pattern is especially useful if you’re an advanced beginner - ready to branch out beyond the rectangle but still a bit intimidated by a circular project. The theme of ‘fire’ came out of my experimentation with crazy red hair. as my hair dye (Manic Panic) gradually washed out, it follows what I affectionately call the ‘Photoshop flame gradient’ - an ever-changing variation of reds, oranges, and yellows. In homage to my crazy hair, I came up with Hot Head - fun, simple stripes in a fiery sequence.”
