Finished Knitted Object: Snowflake Hat
Need a small knitting project you can whip up relatively quickly, that's simple enough, but not boring, that you can make with your DK yarn odds and ends? This is the perfect project for you - The Snowflake Hat (and Mittens, if you have enough yarn). You can find it here on Ravelry , or directly here . I made mine for my daughter using 8 Ply DK acrylic yarn scraps from a magazine project kit. I added a red faux fur pompom (you can easily find an affordable one on AliExpress or eBay), after multiple unsuccessful attempts to make a yarn pom pom. The Fair Isle / colourwork portion was easy enough, yet kept the knitting from getting boring. My daughter has worn the beanie out now a couple of times and loved it. Let me know if you go ahead and knit this yourself, or leave a comment below if you have a similar project, I'd love to know!
