ThreeBlessings Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 (edited) Please help me pick which pattern for this hat. This is driving me batty! I just can't decide. #1 white ribbing with repeated rainbow pattern #2 white ribbing with repeated rainbow pattern with white stripes between each color or #3 neither!

justamouse Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 White. It gives the eye a break from the colors and helps you see which ones are actually there. Unless you want that blended effect? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommy22alyns Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 I actually like #1, but not so much with the white ribbing on it. If you're set on white as an accent, I'd go with #2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fraidycat Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 I really like #2. I like the white between the colors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinder Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 Of your two color schemes I like the white and color striped one better. Either way that's going to be a lot of ends to weave in--yikes! Just a note--the pattern you linked might require people to register just to view it. The login page popped up when I linked, but I'm already registered at that site. Here is the pattern at Ravelry. (I think Rav now allows people to see the pattern page without being registered there.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With #2 the white could be carried up through the hat because it would only needed twisted up two rows. I suppose the distance between stripes would prevent the rest of the colors from being twisted round and carried up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not totally set on the white. Dd loves Rainbow Brite and the colors together reminded me of her, that's all. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinder Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 I suppose the distance between stripes would prevent the rest of the colors from being twisted round and carried up? I think it would become too cumbersome to carry all the colors up. And it may end up getting sloppy and bulky on the inside. It's a cute hat. I'm just so bad at striping that I try to avoid it. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GnomeyNewt Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 I like #2 the best. My DD likes everything rainbow colored too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the Rain Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 I like both, but #2 is my top choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starr Posted December 27, 2011 Share Posted December 27, 2011 I like number 1 best but would leave out the while. :) Aren't we all a lot of help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
