Outdoorable
Introducing Outdoorable!
Outdoorable is a sport weight hat featuring two colors worked in corrugated ribbing. One color is used for all the knit stitches, while the second color is used for all the purl stitches. Crown decreases are cleverly worked to maintain the striped ribbing all the way to the top.
I paired Spincycle Dyed in the Wool with Natural Syster by Beautiful Syster, and I love the mix of sophisticated plied colors with a sturdy rustic solid.
The purl stitches are larger than the knit stitches and will therefore “pop,” even when the purled yarn is slightly lighter weight than the knitted yarn, as it is here.
