MY LIL DUMPLING

$8.00

The hat pattern you didn't know you've been waiting for! Perfect for the dumpling lover in your life, ages 0-100.

One dumpling cable motif, many options. Do a single dumpling, or make one or two rows of dumplings. Make one (at least!) in a different color by combining intarsia in the round and cables.

The crown decreases are worked with a knitted pleat technique to mimic the top of a xiao long bao, or Chinese soup dumpling.

And for the final touch, embroider a lil face on your Lil Dumpling Hat for ultimate cuteness!
