The Fox and the Houndstooth

The Fox and the Houndstooth

From $11.25

This stunning colorwork hat combines the classic houndstooth motif with modern style elements. It’s the perfect colorwork hat for both seasoned and aspiring colorwork knitters, and you can join the Pom Squad by adding the oversized pom to the top. From indie dyer Little Fox Yarn, you’ll love Fennec, a beautifully round yarn with softness and bounce. This hat comes in six sizes from baby to adult extra large, so you can make one for anyone and everyone you love. Two kit options are available for this project: choose from the kit in the original sample colors of Deep Water & Languid from Little Fox Yarn, or uplevel and get Oana Befort's stunning pom maker included at a special price. Construction Notes: This hat is knit from the brim up, beginning with the German Twisted Cast On to create a superb edge for the brim. The main hat body features a colorwork houndstooth motif, followed by a little pop of color as the crown is decreased. An optional pom can be added like the cherry on top!
