Are you looking to learn how to knit colorwork thi

Are you looking to learn how to knit colorwork this year? My new Winter Carnival Bulky Hat is a fan favorite for beginner colowork knitters. There are even local yarn stores that use it for beginner classes.What makes it great for getting started? I specifically designed this pattern so that each row only uses 2 colors at a time and with a 6 stitch chart the floats are minimal. Meaning your tension will look great and with 4 colors used throughout the pattern it looks more complicated than it is. Your friends will be impressed!You can get this pattern and all my Winter Carnival patterns for 20% off through Sunday, January 18th. PLUS @summercampfibers is offering 10% off all Winter Carnival kits with my link in bio!What were some of your first colorwork knits?Pattern: Winter Carnival Bulky HatYarn: @summercampfibers #knittingpattern #fairisleknitting #colorworkknitting
