Beginner Double Brim Knit Hat Pattern (PDF Download) and a link to the step-by-step video tutorial.

Looking for an easy knit hat pattern that’s warm, modern, and beginner-friendly?

This Beginner Double Brim Knit Hat Pattern is designed using worsted weight yarn and includes 3 unisex sizes. The folded brim creates extra warmth around the ears while keeping the look clean and classic.

Materials

• I used Wool of the Andes Tweed #4 Medium weight yarn
• US 8 / 5mm 16″ circular needles for the hat
• US 8 / 5mm 32″ circular needles for crown shaping using the Magic Loop method, or double-pointed needles.
• Yarn needle
• Scissors
• Markers

Pattern notes:

• The pattern is written in English US terminology 
• This pattern made as sizes S(M, L)
• In this picture I have demonstrated with size M
• This pattern uses two colors, but you can also make the hat with just one color or more than two colors if you prefer.
• This hat is designed with a slightly relaxed fit, but it’s easy to adjust for a more fitted look. Instructions for making this adjustment are included below the Hat Body section.
• This hat pattern is worked in the round on the right side, meaning you’ll always be knitting from the front of the work without turning.
