Helix knitting is a method of knitting jogless stripes in the round. It works well for single row stripes, seamless garter stitch, and blending dye lots of yarn.

This worsted weight hat or cowl begins with a jogless garter stitch band. Jogless stripes are then worked in your choice of two or three colors. These projects are great for stashbusting your leftover yarn from previous projects!

Notes are included for adjusting crown shaping if you cast on a different number to change size.

I designed this set as a quick start project for a helix knitting class.
