- Pattern Details
Bamboo Bloom Handpaints, the yarn used for the body of this hat is striking and unique. When worked in modest stockinette stitch, the colors in this yarn play together beautifully. The way this yarn works up is reminiscent of the interesting patterning seen on many cichlid varieties of fish.
