This colourful and easy to knit hat will make you feel pretty happy in the cold and dull days of winter, and made in beautifully soft Polwarth wool, it will keep your head very cosy!
A simple design that brings movement and enhances the colours of the yarn, it is also a very quick project to knit, perfect for winter gifts…!
The hat is knitted in the round from the bottom up, and the pattern includes both written and charted instructions for convenience, as well as sizing options.

Finished Size:
Approximately 20” circumference x 8” deep. Please note that the Polwarth yarn is by nature very stretchy, and the ribbed brim adds to the elasticity of the hat, which fits up to 24” very easily.
If you wish to make a smaller circumference hat, keep to using the 3.5mm needle throughout.
