Wynfield
This bulky weight hat is sure to please those that enjoy a good garter-stitch texture. The stitch combination looks great in solid colorways, long and short variegated colorways and even speckled and striped colorways. Added slip stitches provide vertical columns that are not lost in the natural color shifts of non-solid yarns. It is knit in the round from the bottom up and the body pattern is continued throughout the crown decreases.
