Pollen Hat
Transitioning from Winter to Spring always means layers to me. Preferably leaving my jacket behind, and counting on a few of my favorite woolens to keep me cozy against the last of the icy winter breezes. In particular, I love a light weight hat - quick to knit up in worsted weight, at a gauge that keeps it from being overly warm. Plus, this one has a fun texture that makes it unique and intriguing to knit! The color of this hat reminds me of pollen and all the Spring blooms getting ready to burst open! This unisex hat is available in sizes for the whole family, from baby to adult large!
