Graphite is a light hat that is perfect for autumn and spring. It is a quick knit made with non-felting sock yarn which can be washed easily.
The instructions include a version without a fold up so you can adjust Graphite to your personal needs.

YARN
2 skeins of Schachenmayr 4-ply (50g, 210m/230yds) in color
522 (anthracite) or any fingering weight yarn

GAUGE
39 sts and 41 rows = 10cm / 4” in k1, p1 rib (measured
without stretching the fabric; on my piece I did not see the
purl stitches but they are included in the 39 sts.)

NEEDLES
3mm (or size to obtain gauge with).
You can either use circular needles and work with the magic
loop technique or you can use DPNs.

TOOLS
A tapestry needle or a crochet hook for weaving in ends and
(if desired) a begin of row marker.
