Red Planet Hat (F209)
Marla and Sami Collection
Marla is made from 2 strands of lighter-weight yarn that have been dyed separately and then plied together. When worked, Marla creates a marled fabric, where the colors are uniquely distributed. Sami, the semi-solid DK-weight sister to Marla, has a palette of 11 coordinating colors!

Double knitting: it's twice as warm because it's two hats in one! One one side, Sami dominates; on the other side, Marla. The checkerboard pattern is made easy with the use of plenty of ring markers and ends before the crown shaping. If double knitting is a new technique for you, don't worry: as long as you've made a hat before, this is a good first project.

from 97 reviewsI made these mitts in the same colour as the beanie to match, I made it for my cousin's wife birthday, and she lived them both.
This hat was easy to make and fun with its points looking like cat ears.
Haven't started the shawl yet but its next in line project wise, I'm going to make it for my mum.
loved this pattern, enough texture to make it interesting and rows and rows of plain knitting ideal for knitting when you're tired, but can't sit idle
They gave me one of the colors I asked for! Thanks guys!!
I love the pattern. Ordering and downloading was easy. I haven’t made it yet, but after reading through the pattern the instructions are clear. For a novice I think it will provide a great learning challenge and enhance my skills as a knitter.
The ordering & download were easy. I haven’t made it yet, but after reading through the pattern it looks well written and presented and easy enough for a relatively novice knitter to understand.
Everything arrived in wonderful shape and was exactly as I hoped it would be. I wasn't surprised -- I've ordered from this organization for years and years.
They arrived in excellent shape and were everything I hoped they would be ! ! !
Mysteries are exciting - and that's what this shopping experience was.
Beautiful color. Great feel. I can't wait to start knitting.
