Dry Tortugas Beanie

****Pattern #33 in the original U.S. National Park inspired line of beanies**** by Nancy Bates A visit to Dry Tortugas (70 miles off the coast of Key West) feels like a step back in time. This remote park encompasses 100 miles of open water with 7 small islands, including Garden Key, home of the world famous and historic Fort Jefferson. This fun to knit hat combines simple stockinette with a touch of stranded colorwork, striping, and a few rows of mosaic knitting to take you from the deep blue and aquamarine waters, to the moat wall and brick fort, up to a clear blue sky. Rows of green represent the grass on the roof while carefully placed decreases hint at the hexagon shape of the fort.
