THREE DEE headband & beanie
This beanie and headband use an extra squishy tuck stitch that gives an elastic, thick fabric, ideal for a warming hat. The easy repeat creates an impressive 3D effect with a modern, graphic feel. Choose two contrasting colors for this pattern to accentuate the depth of the bubbles. It also lets speckled hand or kettle dyed yarn shine when chosen as the main color.
