A playful hat for the whole family, Upton colors can be
varied so they’re subtle and tasteful or brash and bright.
The textured Upton stripes add interest to what is
otherwise a simple hat. Have fun choosing colors together!

The hat is worked in the round from the brim up. It is a
close-fitting beanie designed to be worn with approx 1”
negative ease. The number of Upton stripes on each hat
varies based on the size being knitted.
