The Bergman hat was designed as a companion to the Bergman sweater. You can find the sweater pattern here!

A reverse color chart option is provided for ease of reading.

I used Retrosaria Rosa Pomar Mungo yarn for my version- a recycled wool and cotton yarn entirely spun from pre-consumer waste generated by Portuguese spinning mills. You can find this yarn and kits at their website! Thank you so much to Rosa and her team for providing the yarn for this design!
