Leni
For pattern support please go to the questions thread here.
…let me shout out a big THANK YOU for your love, your ongoing support, your trust, your understanding, your patience….for being by my side on this journey…. hope you enjoy this little hat pattern!
Leni is a casual hat, worked in the round from the folded brim to the top. Combining one strand of mohair lace and one strand of fingering weight merino results in a soft and sumptuous look, but any other yarn that gives you the right gauge will work just fine. The hat is started with a provisional cast on and some ribbing which is then hidden when the main body of the hat is worked. A small delicate band of texture comes next and adds just the right amount of interest. An optional pompom is worked last.
