The Mineral Hat is the perfect companion to the Mineral Mittens and feature a simple, overall colourwork with knit and purl stitched combined. It’s worked bottom up in the round and has a flat crown shaping for a snug fit. The length is easily adjustable by adding more repeats of the main pattern, giving the hat a more slouchy fit.
