Fusion Knitting has gotten easier!
Try Modified Fusion Knitting first!

The Reversible Step One Hat matches the Reversible Step One Cowl and is designed as an introduction to Fusion Knitting. This technique creates a fabric with drape similar to garter stitch and looks like a different colour on each side. This hat is knit in the round starting with a garter stitch brim.

The MC yarn creates the cables on the right side/outside of you the hat. The CC yarn creates the cables on the wrong side/inside of the hat. Two cable stitches are used to create lines that spiral up the hat. Picture tutorials are included to show how I work these cables. The Reversible Step One Cowl teaches the same techniques.
