Hoarfrost Hat is a perfect hat to wear when temperatures drop. Double-folded brim hugs the ears and keeps the chilling winds out. It is knitted inside-out, with two different styles of Ribbing. The main body of the hat worked in a simple cable pattern, gradually transitioning into crown shaping. The style of the hat is a fitted beanie. If you would like to add more depth to the hat, just knit additional cable repeats before crown shaping. Knit in two colors of DK weight yarn, the hat is perfect for combining different colors, and using partial skeins of yarn.
