Hi friends! my love of hat making keeps on growing, and ideas keep coming to my head all the time. In this long and full of events year, I got into the habit of surfing Pinterest and YouTube looking for stitch patterns that can be adapted into hats, then I would rush to my stash to grab any leftover skein (or skeins) and start working. So here I am, 16 new head wear designs, proudly presented to you, most of then are easy to make. The only reason that makes me tag these hats as “Intermediate” is the fact that casting on and joining stitches into a round might seem advanced to some.

This hat is special for its green beaded looking rounds, and it could be knitted with brighter colors, which I feel are going to make it look prettier, so why not give it a try.

Stay safe and healthy, and I hope you have a lovely time in the upcoming holidays
