The NEPAL Hat is my new stranded-colorwork hat, designed for everyone — as enjoyable to knit as it is to wear.
It features a simple 5-row motif, perfect for easing into colorwork or savoring a quick, relaxing project.
You’ll start with 2x2 ribbing that gently brings in the colors, then the stranded stockinette reveals a subtle motif with soft, contrasting shades that highlight the design beautifully, creating a luminous effect and giving the hat plenty of personality.
The hat is worked flat so the colorwork repeat aligns perfectly for a clean, seamless look.
A simple, comforting project — ideal for treating yourself or gifting to someone special.
