A knitting pattern for a fun, warm winter hat with a geometric stranded colourwork motif. Worked in two colours with an optional pom-pom, the hat features a tubular cast-on for a nice stretchy edge. 

The motif on this pattern was inspired by the cosy feeling of being bundled up in warm clothes, ready to go and enjoy a snowy day as sparkling frost sits on window panes. The colourwork on the cowl and hat is simple and perfect as a beginner’s first stranded project!
