I named this design Green With Envy because that’s what I imagine all Chris’s friends are when they see his many knitted hats. (A gal can dream, right?) Plus, it’s green yarn and I was feeling ever so clever.
Green With Envy is a super lightweight slouch hat worked in the round from the bottom up. Every fourth round of the labyrinth chart will require your attention. Once the new pattern is set up you will simply work as established for a few rounds. This pattern will continue through to the end of the crown decreases.
