Dicotyledon Hat

Early on in spring, reminding us that warmer days are on their way, the first leaves of seedlings emerge from the soil, reaching for the sun. Those duos of bold, delicate leaves are called dicotyledons (or dicots). This spring moment inspired the Dicotyledon Mitts, and now it brings that inspiration to a coordinating hat. Twisted rib panels contrast with the textured dip stitches of Borderie Anglaise to create a striking hat that keeps the early spring chill at bay.

The Dicotyledon Hat uses just over half of a 100g skein of DK weight yarn, leaving plenty to make a matching set of Dicotyledon Mitts.
