valdres / Kate Running
We originally discovered Kate's hat on social media and fell in love with its highly-contrasted, crisp floral colorwork motif. Worked up in Chickadee and Chickadee Organic Heathers, there is a vast range of colors to choose from on this project. A double-thick brim with a contrast stripe and the floats from the colorwork should make this a toasty hat for deep chills.
