Carolinian from Kate Oates is a quick and easy knit that is open enough for breathing room, but still gives those of us in mild climates a chance to play with cold-weather yarn. This slouchy hat is knit bottom-up, in the round, with sizes for all ages. With its incredible softness and luminous colors, Malabrigo Rasta is the perfect super bulky yarn for this project.
