Very simple repeated motifs and strong stripes become tall skyscrapers when viewed at right angles – and especially at the crown. There’s a fine balance between subtlety and drama in this design, which lends itself particularly well to fine adjustments for size, thanks to the shallow pattern repeat.

Each Hat in the Convergence collection is worked sideways in two colours of DK weight yarn. The patterns can be adjusted for different head circumferences by adding or removing panels, and each pattern also includes an adjustment point for length.

Available as a single pattern or as part of the Convergence collection.
