Mama don't take my Kodachrome away...

Very much inspired by the yarns I knit the sample in, Kodachrome is a hat playing with texture and colour to create something fresh, cosy, and personal. Stick with one colour for an understated piece with subtle interest, go bold for a riot of colour and fluff, or anything in between!

Knit in the Black Stag Yarn Soulmate collection of superwash merino and baby suri alpaca silk, Kodachrome is a luxurious knit that's both elegant and fun.
