Perhaps I've known too many EMTs in my life, but I just couldn't name this hat after anything other than the chorus I so often hear referenced when we see an ambulance running lights and sirens. After I made the first Staff of Asclepius beanie, I was asked if I could do a full EMS cross. And so this beanie was born, in a not-quite-within-uniform blue.
Note: This pattern is Advanced! There's a lot going on in the motif, including some complex cabling.
