Sashiko Hat Knitting Kit
This is an easy-peasy color work hat suitable for a not-so-seasoned knitter. The zig-zag pattern is established in purl stitches, then the colorwork is woven under using those stitches as a guide.

Yardage Information
Gauge is extremely important for all of our patterns. The yardage for yarn included in our knitting kits is based on the amount of yarn required to make the sample plus an additional 15%.
If your row and/or stitch gauge is larger than what is listed on the pattern, you may not have enough yarn to complete your project. If you require more yarn, additional yarn is available at the regular per skein cost and will be shipped to you free of charge.
