Into the Trees
Thanks to Modern Daily Knitting for featuring this pattern in their newest article!
Design
Into the Trees works up fast in worsted weight yarn. Written in one size fits most, the German twisted cast-on is utilized for an optimal amount of stretch without losing its shape. This hat is the perfect accessory for this season’s gift-giving! There are two different versions of the hat, a beanie length, and a slouchy length. Or you can add or remove repeats for something in-between.
Skills Required
Simple decreases and yarn-overs are used for this hat, making this a great pattern for introducing yourself to lace. The pattern includes separate instructions for a chart-reader and a row-for-row knitter. The pattern also includes video links for all stitches and techniques used.
