Notes
This hat is knit in the round from the bottom up, beginning with a Provisional CO. The brim is worked and then the Provision- al CO is unzipped and knit with the next round of knitting. The body of the hat is worked in a linear colorwork motif, inspired by the beauty of Northeastern mountain peaks. In the sample, MC1 and MC2 are held as the dominant colors and CC1 and CC2 are the background colors.
