This hat uses X O motifs but changes them up by standing them on end.  Rather than horizontal bands, the bands become vertical, but the color changes stay horizontal.  It makes for a new way of looking at Fair Isle.   Even the Skull \u0026amp; Crossbones motif looks “traditional”  - but it’s not!The motifs are riffs on tradition, but designed by me.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKnit in the round, it starts with 3 rounds of corrugated rib.  The 6 vertical bands are separated with a single column of alternating knits and purls.  It is slouchy, about 10.5 inches tall with 2 long tassels on top.  Skull cap has a finished height of about 8 inches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstructions are for slouch style with modifications in italic for a skull cap.
