Have you ever tried a mandala yarn before? I’m sure the answer to that question is probably a yes, right? 😉 Well, when I saw the Mandala Tweed Stripes from Lion Brand I knew I had to check it out. I don’t normally gravitate towards striping yarns but something about these colors were calling to me. I’m a sucker for tweed! Somebody mentioned in my Instagram comments that the colors remind them of strata layers and I have to say, I definitely agree! The Strata Beanie pattern is fun and quick to make.
I incorporated some surface stitching which I think gives it the perfect finishing touch. Plus there are so many different colors you can use for different holidays! Red and green for a christmas beanie, white and pink for Valentines day, or maybe even make it in your school colors! I think it would be great in your team’s colors too!
