MUD Hat
"MUD" means "mosaic ugly duckling": This hat is designed to show off those variegated yarns that you might not have liked in other projects. Add some contrasting yarn as a background, and that previously ugly yarn looks fantastic! The hat knits up quickly, and requires only one color of yarn on each round?no Fair Isle skills needed! The rest of the stitches are merely slipped. Tina?s made five of them. (So far.) We think you?ll enjoy them just as much! Cost: $32 plus supplies. Supplies: The pattern is on Ravelry. You?ll need either bulky or worsted-weight yarn, and the needles to match the yarn. Make an appointment to come see us to get some help choosing the perfect colors. Wednesday and Thursday nights, Feb. 10 & 11, from 6-7 and 6-8, respectively, on Zoom. (We'll start the ribbing the first night, then learn mosaic the next night.)
