Ziyad was the first in a series of patterns named after our children. There are four out now, and six more scheduled for the next couple years. I named one for Rayan, as well, and will have one representing our marriage to tie them together. This pattern, though, is knit with Aran weight yarn and works up really quickly. It is a fun variation on a ribbed hat and is quite warm. This was named for one of our boys' middle names, to keep the Arabic theme going. Also, Ziyad means increase or growth, which is kind of what the stitch pattern looks like it is doing on the hat. It is sized from infant to large adult and makes a great gift.

Ziyad is available for sale on PayHip, Ravelry, and LoveCrafts. Through the end of the day, PST, December 18, 2020, you can receive 20% off on both PayHip and Ravelry with the coupon code giftknitting.
