Fall 2021 Manos del Uruguay x Stephanie Earp

This slip stitch hat and scarf has a holographic quality usually only found in brioche knits - but there’s no brioche here! The 4-row repeat could not be simpler, making this an excellent project for new knitters. And both sides are the ‘right’ side, with a different color emphasis.

The size is easy to modify, just add repeats to increase the width and knit it as long or as short as you like. Just be aware any modifications will affect your yarn requirements, so plan accordingly.
