After a day spent dyeing and developing color, my mind often yearns for an effortless project. Although I love lace and more complex knitting, sometimes I just need to relax. At times like those, this is the perfect pattern.

Simple ribbing with an increase to make the head roomier than the brim produces the perfect gift for the person with unfussy taste in your life. Knit in super-soft Heartland, the County Line Hat is a pleasure for both the knitter and the wearer.
