Square Cubed takes us on a geometric journey! This fun design plays with line and square and how they fit with organic form.

Within the design you’ll find the possibility of mixing and matching the square design to your own taste and preferences.

The patterns is provided in both written and charted format, and are graded through gauge. Two sizes are included in each pattern, and further help for grading with different yarns and needle sizes is available on the Woolly Wormhead forum.

You’ll also receive links to premium photographic tutorials that you can download, covering all of the techniques needed to complete the Hat.
