This is a pattern to make a winter themed slouchy beanie hat using the stranded colourwork technique.

This pattern contains 3 charts (snow, hopping hares & a little bit sheepy) to work up 3 different hat motifs inspired from our wintry motifs from our Patreon members’ Winter stocking project! Have fun and enjoy some Warm Woolly Knitting!
