A wonderful, warm colorful hat for your tresses this fall!
This pattern will help you knit a chunky rainbow hat! You can use different skeins of yarn suitable to 6.0 mm needles, or noro variegated yarn. I love this pattern because not only is it rainbow, but the stitches create different textures within the finished product.

This tutorial uses knitting in the round, as well as the knit, purl, and k2tog stitch.
