Designer Melissa Johnson’s Stained Glass Hat is the perfect small project for experimenting with color combinations and using small amounts of yarn from your collection.
The top of the hat can be finished in charted decreases or simply gathered. Work the cuff in corrugated rib or stockinette stitch for a rolled edge.
