Inspired by a woven hat, Bocce's design reinterprets the weaving pattern with slip stitches for the warp threads and stripes for the weft threads. You have a choice of two border options - plain or with points. Bocce can be knit with as many as ten contrast colors or as few as one, making it great for stash busting. It is equally effective with a color changing yarn with long color repeats. You have lots of options to customize Bocce and make it uniquely your own.
