Boneyard Sweetheart Hat Pattern

Why don’t you ever see skeletons fighting with each other?

They just don’t have the guts.

These skeletons are joining hands in friendship to celebrate my favorite season. Combining the macabre with the sweet, this hat is spooky, fun and downright humerous. Happy Halloween!

Boneyard Sweethearts is knit seamlessly in the round from the bottom up. This is a stranded colorwork design. This pattern is charted. It includes a chart for skeletons with ghosts OR skeletons with hearts. Pick your poison.
