» This darling fair isle hat is going to be your new go to knitting pattern! The hearts are so cute and not just for Valentines Day, either.  Here's 5 reasons you need this design in your pattern library:

1. This is one of my best sellers at shows every single year
2. SO many fun color combinations
3. Uses up scrap yarn for the hearts stitches
4. Quick knit! Whips up in 2 hours or less
5. Eye catching hearts will give your customers heart eyes - it's perfect for Valentine's Day, but can be worn all fall/winter long

DETAILS:
• I’ve included TWO different versions of this pattern. The first is geared towards beginner knitters - it’s a very easy repeat, but the jog of the hearts don’t *perfectly* line up, but it’s dang close
• The second version is a tad more difficult to track (it just requires you to pay a little more attention) but results in a perfect spiral of the hearts
• My test knitters rated it on an average of 2.5 difficulty to follow the more challenging version
• Pattern assumes knitter is familiar with casting on, knit and purl stitches, knitting in the round, and how to knit colorwork, making it a pattern for adventurous beginner knitters
• Pattern includes written standard American knitting instructions, and a graph for the color work
• Includes two separate PDF downloads, for the easy and intermediate versions
• I've included my recommendations for adjusting the pattern for newborn to XL adult

YARN:
• You will need 2 different colored skeins of size 6 (super bulky) yarn
• Recommended: Lion Brand Wool Ease Thick and Quick, Big Twist naturals, or Lion Brand Hometown USA
• Amount: up to 60 yards / 96 grams for the main color, and up to 20 yards /32 grams for the contrasting color (plus extra if making a yarn pompom.)
