A two-tone colorwork hat, inspired by the work of 19th century photographer Eadweard J. Muybridge whose work in photographing locomotion laid the groundwork for the first motion pictures. Knit from the bottom up, the hat decreases to a flat top after the colorwork panel is complete and is topped off  with an optional braided tassel.
