Knitting Pattern: Auringonkukka Hat (by Anna Johanna)

The various shapes of a sunflower can be viewed either from distance or from a close-up view. Include all colors into the colorwork knitting or add some of them later by duplicating stitches.

The pattern for the Auringonkukka hat was previously published in Beloved Patterns & Pihlgren and Ritola knitting magazine, where the inspiration came from Pihlgren and Ritola's iconic wallpaper patterns.
