Mobberley - PDF knitting pattern

Clever use of simple increases and decreases create the double chevron that works it's way around this sideways knit Hat.

This pixie (slightly pointed beanie?) begs for a bright, variegated hand-dyed yarn! Worked up in aran weight, the pattern is quick and memorable.

Available as a single pattern or as part of the Painted Woolly Toppers for Kids collection.
