Stripe It Up by Babs Ausherman
As most of my friends and many of my customers know, I love fingering weight yarns, colors, and stripes! I realized that our Mini Bundles of 10 colors are ideal for using in hats. This is essentially my Mash It Up Hat, but uses 80 yard minis that have become so popular.
Choosing which colors go in what order is up to you! I like to lay them out on a counter and look at the colors for a day or two - moving them around until I am happy. Another method is to put them in your knitting bag and randomly pull them out.
