Inspired
by Indian embroidery, Lisa McFetridge’s Himapaat Hat features an eye-catching
colorwork motif knit in a worsted weight yarn. This is a quick project that
would make a great introduction to stranded colorwork. The hat is knit in
the round from the brim to the crown. The colorwork patterns are in chart
form only.
