Craft: Knitting

A hat is always an excellent small canvas for trying out a new technique or stitch. If you're familiar with basic brioche knitting, why not try this honeycomb variation? Worked with the same knitting and slipping techniques as ribbed brioche, honeycomb produces a net-like fabric that hovers over a layer of contrasting color.
