Product Description
From pattern intro: I created this design in honor of the Year of the Horse; the stranded border combines both an image of a horse, and a repeat of the simplified Chinese character for “horse.”
The Lijiang Hat is worked in the round from the bottom up, with a corrugated rib edging, and uses a combination of stranded knitting and duplicate stitch for the horse motif. The horse may be omitted, and the hat worked with a simplified stranded border repeat of the Chinese character only.
The Lijiang Pony is a relatively new breed of horse, from the Lijiang District of China.
Difficulty: Intermediate: Skills include working in the round, reading a chart, stranded knitting with long floats (catching longer floats on WS is recommended), and duplicate stitching.
