“Pretty Please with sugar on top?” We’ve all heard it before and this hat delivers. Designed to be a perfect introduction to mosaic knitting, this easy beanie is knit using only one color at a time. By predictably slipping stitches, a brightly colored band of interlocking pieces is created. All increases and decreases are worked in the main color, so knitting this design is a piece of cake! A perfect pompom of rainbow mini-skein ‘sprinkles’ is the sugar on top of this sweet hat. Pretty easy, this hat aims to please.
