Gorton – knitting pattern
$10.00
Named after an area in Manchester where the design was conceived, Gorton features proportional columns of slipped stitches against a garter stitch background. Ideal for showcasing hand-dyed yarns, the pattern is worked from the bottom up and in the round. Available as a single pattern or as part of the Painted Woolly Toppers for Kids collection.
Hat Description
Gorton is a garter stitch beanie with a motif of parallel lines of vertical knit stitches. The tallest pair of lines reach all the way into the crown; next to them the lines reach two thirds of the height, and the remaining pair one third. The columns are as wide as the distance between them.
