Need a hat in a hurry? The Power of Four is the perfect gift knit. Raid your stash for leftover DK yarn, cast on, and have the whole thing finished in a couple of hours. With all its super-squishy, marled gloriousness, no one will know you made the whole thing in a jiffy.

Added bonus is there’s also no need to measure head size. Made with four DK yarns held together, this hat is not only incredibly warm and stretchy, but one size will fit almost any adult head.

Best of all you can play with colours to get a wide variety of effects - pick shades colours that blend or go for a shot of contrast. Power of Four is perfect for fun fades – simply change up a strand whenever you want a subtle shift in colour.
