An old drafty house is the perfect setting for a murder mystery, really adding to the ambiance. But don’t worry, this hat isn’t really drafty, the play of eyelets in the ribbing allow drafts of the colorful lining to peek through to the front side of this slouchy beanie. The Frightfully Drafty Hat is suited for an intermediate knitter, but a beginner could achieve the pattern by picking up a few new skills.

The pattern requires at least two different colors of minis and one full skein. Up to 25 minis may be used by cycling through each color, and hats using less than 25 minis will repeat colors.
