diamonds x 2.

Another Diamond Waves hat. I just love this pattern; its so beautiful when its finished. I made this one for my sister with stash yarns I had laying around--1 skein of Blue Sky Alpacas Worsted Hand Dyes in gold and some scraps of Tanis Fiber Arts Green Label Aran in shadow.I love it. The shadow colorway is subtle in the fair isle and does just that-- creates this shadow of sorts.I modified the crown so it wasn't so tall since my yarn was a bit bulkier than I think the called for Malabrigo Merino worsted. But I used the slightly heavier yarn for the main color because my sister complains my fair isle hats don't fit down over her ears and I wanted to make sure this one was loose and fit her well. There's no point in wearing a hat in New England that doesn't cover your ears.Here's the other Diamond Waves hat I made. I recommend everyone make this hat. The rewards are endless.
