Helix 101 is the perfect pattern to unleash your creativity! Whether you’re a beginner or a more experienced knitter, this pattern will be a go-to pattern for gifts--or better yet, for stash busting.

The helix technique is a way to take advantage of the natural spiral of knitting a hat. You’ll work your yarn in sections; the pattern explains exactly how to do that. You’ll get plenty of tips to make the process easy.

Helix knitting allows you to combine lots of colors to make stripes that never jog or look messy. Start with four colors for your first hat, but once you understand what you’re doing, the possibilities are endless!

This hat uses any weight of yarn, and is sized from baby through large adult.
