Seabed - the ground under the sea - the ocean floor.

Seabed is included in my little ebook Fathom along with it’s sister lace hat pattern Knot.

Seabed is a all-over lace hat with a beachy feel. Worked in leafy/shell-style from the ribbing up to the crown of the hat. The instructions are given in both fully written and fully charted formats.

If you are a lover of lace hats! You can get both my lace hat eBooks for $15. Just put both Stone & Sea and Fathom in your cart and the discount will be automagically applied! If you’ve previously bought Stone & Sea you’ll magically get Fathom for just $5!

Yarn:

1 skein of Woolfolk TYND in colourway “No 2” and 1 skein of Woolfolk SNO in colourway “No 1 & 2,” held double. Or two skeins of 223 yards (204 metres) of fingering weight yarn, held double.

Needles:

3.5mm (US 4) knitting needles (or whatever size it takes you to get gauge) in whatever style needles you like to use for knitting a hat in the round (DPNs, Magic Loop, 16” circular needles, etc…). I used 16” circular needles until I needed to work The Decrease Chart and then I switched over to DPNs.

Notions:

1 stitch marker.
