You want this hat on your needles!

This pattern was designed out of my absolute love for knit hats and my need to find the perfect fitting knit hat! It is my ‘go to’ hat pattern…my only hat pattern! Beginner friendly, easily memorized and easily customized to make it your own unique knit. Pattern is UNISEX and includes beginner tips and instructions on using different yarn weights without having to make any changes to the basic pattern! If you don’t like a good slouchy fit, I also show you how to make it a beanie length.

Pattern calls for approximately 60gm’s of sport/light DK weight and ‘6’ 10gm mini skeins or yarn scraps of fingering/sock weight.

Gauge is 1 strand light DK and 1 strand fingering weight held double.

The best part…I am going to take you on a marling and color blending journey! With a look into my crazy method of choosing and blending colors into colorful marled fabric! So come on in, sit down with a cup of coffee or tea and let’s chat!

Come ‘kaleido-KNIT’ with me!
