Fire Blossom started out as an idea for mittens. The first mitten didn’t work out because of the stitch count so it became a swatch so-to-speak. I liked the colors and motif and still wanted to use them. My little flowers and swirlies are an 8-count repeat so that worked great for a standard hat with fingering weight yarn. I worked out the crown and did a swatch for that, then made the whole hat.
Pink is not a color that I typically use. I’ve had a ball of Knit Picks Palette “Blossom Heather” (pink) for a really long time and finally found a place to incorporate it into my colorwork.
Here’s the FREE pattern for Fire Blossom Hat.
Enjoy!
beautiful hat, love the colours
