The Snowflake Hat uses color-stranded knitting techniques. The motif is a classic Snowflake fair-isle pattern.
The motif is a 20 stitch pattern repeat, for this reason, the knitting loom used must have a peg multiple of 20.
The sample was knitted on a Regular Gauge adult hat knitting loom, however, the stitch pattern can be knitted on any knitting loom that has the necessary peg multiple.
Choose a smaller gauge, such as fine gauge or extra fine gauge for the stitch pattern to show off at its best.
