Here is my new hat pattern, an easy but interesting construction. It named after an old greek lady, whom I met once in Cyprus and i fell in love with her name.

Hat is knitted in one piece and bottom-up.

The size fits an average adult head. The length is approx. 10.25”/26cm from brim to top. This hat is customizable for either a snug fit or a more “slouchy” fit depending on the number of chevron pattern repeats and would also be cute with the addition of a pompon.

Pattern contains written and charted instructions.

The pattern has been professionally tech edited and test knitted.

Needles: US4/3.5mm and US6/4mm, 32”/80cm circular needles or double pointed needles
