is a great hat project for any knitter. It's knit with and held together, making it soft, warm, fluffy, but it also has the weight to hold up to cold weather. We chose two colours that are close together but not exactly the same, which creates some depth of colour and vibrance in the finished piece.
Modifications
- To make a size large: 1. cast on 96 sts, 2. knit an extra inch before you begin the decreases (begin decreases at 9”); 3. begin the decrease section by working in 1x1 rib pattern for 21 sts, P3tog, then continue in the same logic.
- If you want a folded brin knit for an extra 2.5" to 3" from cast-on edge
Size
- One Size (fits medium-sized head: for a large see modifications above/in pattern)
14.5” circumference (before blocking and unstretched), 10.25” height
Materials
: 2 skeins (all sizes, sample in colour 2345)
: 1 skein (buy 2 skeins if you are making a larger size or a folded brim, sample shown in colour 19)
