Combine one strand of DK weight wool together with one strand of lace weight mohair silk to knit this cozy hat. The pattern begins with 1x1 twisted ribbing that is folded to create a double thick hem. Textured stitches in a triangle motif, garter ridges, and seed stitch fill the body of the hat. This pattern is beginner friendly with a video linked in the instructions to help with the folded hem technique. The fluffy West Wool Glowhair combined with the DK weight Tandem wool adds a beautiful halo to the crisp stitches.

Finished Measurements
18.5 (21, 24)″ / 47 (53, 61)cm head circumference, 10″ / 25cm tall from brim edge to the top of the hat. Measurements taken after blocking.

Size 2 is shown on a 22.5″ / 57cm head circumference. I recommend achieving a finished hat circumference that is 1 or 2 inches (2.5 – 5cm) smaller than your actual head circumference.
