A. Opie Designs - Sheffield Hat Knitting Kit
If a snow day threw a dance party, this would be the hat it wore. Bursting with zigzags, pops of neon, and cozy Chibi Paka Chunky softness, the Sheffield Hat is all fun, no fuss. Designed by the ever-brilliant Amy Opie, it’s cheerful, chunky, and topped with a pom-pom that says, “Let’s play!”
Warning: may cause spontaneous twirling and compliments from strangers.

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.
