Knit Kit - Four Keeps

SKU: B71810

I designed Four Keeps as a beginner-friendly colorwork pattern that uses four skeins of yarn to create at least four hats with easy four-stitch repeats! And even though four colors are used in the design, you only work with two colors at any given time. Enjoy knitting up multiple versions of this baby, changing the look of each hat you make simply by switching the order of the colors you use. Whatever combo you pick, you’ll be able to create your own custom beauties with this pattern! Gift some if you want, but definitely save one for yourself—for keeps!

Easy to follow

The pattern is easy for color work with four colors. It is on the large side though. I reduced cast on stitches to 40 and it is still quite big. I don't like the suggested colors...all very dark! Will try pattern again with lighter contrasting colors.

Lovely Hats.

Colors are terrific, design simple and beautiful, on my second hat and looking forward to the next two. Knitting them for Native American kids in Mt.

Oh what fun!

I'm relatively new to color work, and this kit is perfect for newbies like me. Quick to work up, with easy to follow pattern directions, and lovely Wool Ease Thick and Quick yarn makes it easy to read your stitches. It's instant gratification x 4! Plus, my stash of leftover bits of WET&Q has a new purpose!

Wonderful kit

This kit has it all - the yarn is great to work with and the pattern is easy to follow. I found that it ran on the small side and made adjustments on the second hat that I knit. The colors are all rich and work well together. Very pleased with this purchase.
