Looking for a quick weekend project, or just eager for a chance to use up a few leftovers in your yarn stash? The Boathouse Beanie is a perfect excuse to play with color on a small scale. This project is perfect if you love shopping for color combinations, but it’s just as easy to mix and match what you have on hand. Here’s a tip: If you’re stash-diving, make sure to use yarns that are similar in weight and fiber content. Try a color wheel for sophisticated gradients or complementary color ideas.
