Named for the Pisgah National Forrest in Western North Carolina the Pisgah Hat is much like the landscape with twists of tree roots anchoring into the rocky terrain. Western North Carolina is home of some of the most beautiful Appalachian trail sections, Micro and Large Brewerys, and beautiful rivers not to mention all the lovely flora and fauna that make up this diverse and scenic area. The Wandering twists of hilly cables and purl valleys will remind your hands of the Blue Ridge Parkway views.

Pattern is written for two sizes, both of which only use one skein of The Fiber Seed Sprout Worsted.

Feel Free to try a few suggested modifications: Knit a longer rib section for a fold up brim. Add a extra repeat of the cable section before the decreases for a slouch style. Try a yarn of faux fur pom pom for a on trend finish.
