This hat is the easiest form of Fair Isle you can do. Two colors and no stranding or catching the yarn in the back. Just let the floats go and they will add extra insulation for your head. It is an easy pattern if you can count to 3. Great for Christmas gifts. The first hat was knit with two shades of Berroco Metallic Sox and the second hat was knit with two shades of Trekking.
