Lucien Hat

"Lucien Hat is a striped slouchy beanie with a clever color management technique that produces no jagged seams, no typical color changes, and no color floats! It begins at the top with a spiral of two colors. You can wear it slouchy or fold up the bottom to make your ears extra toasty. The pattern includes sizes preemie, baby, child, tween, and adult. You'll need 25 to 11 yds of two contrasting colors of DK/3/Light weight yarn. "
