Fair Isle Charity Hat Pattern
I’ve been gone for a while but I come bearing gifts – a free hat pattern! So, they are having a charity drive at the Lion Brand Yarn Studio to collect donations for Hats 4 the Homeless. I was inspired to donate but of course with me being me I couldn’t just use any pattern, I had to design my own. I made this hat using Vanna’s Choice and Vanna’s Choice Baby yarn.
