Ball Busting Hat was designed as a way to use up my precious leftover bits of Spincycle Yarns Dyed In The Wool.
I find this yarn to be similar to a fingering-weight, so you could easily substitute fingering weight yarn held-double, or dk-weight yarn held single!
Â
This hat uses one of my favorite stitches, herringbone, which looks amazing in multicolored yarns.
Â
This would be the perfect project to use up any balls of precious yarn you have in your stash!
