Slippt
Slip stitch knitting is an unexpected delight, a form of colorwork that looks complicated, but is very easy to achieve as there is no stranded colorwork knitting. The combinations of slipping stitches, variations of color, and knit and purl stitches create unexpected and surprising results and is the perfect project to unleash your color creativity.
The Slippt collection is available in four different yarn weights and is ideal for using leftover scraps of yarn for the colorwork. Whether it’s knitting up the perfect homemade gift, or special items for yourself— the hat, cowl and mitt combinations will keep you and your friends toasty warm through the cold months.

- Stitch markers
- Tapestry needle
- Pompom (for hat, optional)
Before starting the accessory, knit gauge swatches in both stockinette stitch and stranded colorwork to establish which needle sizes are needed, so that the correct finished measurements of the item can be achieved.
Once the correct size has been established, and which needle size will be used, highlight all the applicable numbers, sizes and measurements. This will make the pattern easier to read and will help avoid mistakes.
Slippt Hat is worked in the round from the brim to the crown, with alternatives for a folded, double-layer brim or single-layer ribbed brim. Slip stitches create a band of colorfully textured interest, and the crown is topped with an optional pompom.
