Short Description: Dipyramid by Emily Greene Knits. Dipyramid is a two-colour fair isle hat knit in the round from the bottom up. This hat features a deep brim in 2x2 ribbing that is worn folded back, and a geometric colourwork motif that continues through the crown decreases. An optional tubular cast-on and jaunty pompom provide polished finishing touches. Work the ribbing in the main colour and the pompom in the contrast to emphasize the gradient effect, or invert them for a bigger graphic punch.
