A.N.T. (A New Take) Hat by Aimee DeBaun

A New Take on the double layered reversible beanie in which there are so many versions out there, here is to them all.

Aimee writes "This design was inspired by a hat that was seen while window shopping, and I decided to challenge myself to knit my own from scratch. Using the tools and tricks I’ve learned over my years of knitting I have applied them to my “new take” of a reversible beanie. I was inspired by the beautiful colors in the mYak palette and the baby yak lace makes a wonderful fingering weight when held double. With all this in mind this pattern is named A.N.T. – A New Take …"
