SKIFT HAT
The Skift Hat is a simple stranded colorwork hat, knit from the bottom, up to the crown, with a rolled brim detail. The rolled brim does not require a provsional cast on, but is simply done by picking up stitches from the long tail cast on, and knitting them together with each live, working stitch. The crown decrease is done individually, based on size, for which there is a cordinating chart.
