Groups of knit stitches are lassoed with slipped stitches, drawing attention to the colour changes and glowing texture of a special hand-dyed yarn. A pom-pom adds extra fun to this cute, casual beanie.

Tutorials are included for cast-on and cast-off techniques as well as how to pick up cast-off stitches to create the beautiful chain detail.
