Woolly Wormhead Hats

One of my favorite hats ever is the Toph hat by Woolly Wormhead. Years ago a customer brought this hat to my attention and a few of us knit it. The hat became such a hit that it became one of our best selling classes (and I cannot WAIT to teach it again!!!!)

That same customer sent me a message recently with a new photo and I fell in love once again. Woolly Wormhead knows how to design amazing hats. I would love to see her creative process, she comes up with the most interesting creations.  She recently released an eBook with her 5 newest designs. 

Imperceptions is a collection of Hats that uses unconventional stranded colourwork to create the illusion of manipulated fabric. With carefully placed colour and simple stitches, Imperceptions creates the impression of depth and movement on a flat surface, mimicking the complexities of construction techniques without altering a single stitch.

Each Hat in the Imperceptions collection is knitted bottom-up and in the round. The ideal yarn for these Hats is 4-ply or light sportweight, in a multi-plied fibre with some natural give, such as merino. The illusions look their best in two high-contrast colours.

How gorgeous are these hats???

Daedalus

Echo

Hecate

Hermes

All of these hats were created with Malabrigo Arroyo which we have in stock!! We were able to score the dark blue (Regatta Blue) and orange (Flama) that was used in the Daeleus hat. You can order the yarn here: https://www.alittleknitty.com/shop/Yarn/Malabrigo/p/Malabrigo-Arroyo-x43842962.htm
