Pattern description from Knitting Little Luxuries: “This pattern pairs a traditional Fair Isle motif with a playful shape; its jester-like corners are finished with charming tassels. Worked in two different ways, the hat produces distinctly different results. The two-yarn version shows off the floral pattern dramatically and is perfect for a new Fair Isle knitter, while the five-yarn version delights with a subtler palette.”
