Winter Sparkles is a delightful mystery that combines the elegance of Fair Isle with the shimmer of beads. Each clue reveals a new layer of design, perfect for knitters who love a surprise. This cozy yet glamorous hat will keep you warm all season long. It’ll be done in time for present season, as a bonus! We’ll start on Monday, December 9.

You’ll need one main (background) color, and three contrast colors. You’ll also want beads (between 162 and 216, depending on the size). I used size 5/0 Miyuki triangles (my favorite), but any type of size 5 or 6 will work. Choose either one color of beads, or a number of different colors--that’s up to you!

Sizing:
18” (child, young teen)
20” (adult small/medium)
22” (adult large)
24” (adult extra large)
