This hat was designed in collaboration with Knitted Wit, as a part of the Snowy Hat Collection. Five other Portland designers and I were given skeins of Knitted Wit’s yarn in these new Snowy colors, and were tasked with designing a hat. This pattern is available for individual purchase here, or, from October 1st through December 31, 2015, you can get the entire eBook for $15! Knitted Wit also has kits available on her website, while supplies last - head over there for more information. Better hurry, because they are amazing, and limited! Kit info here

10% of all proceeds of eBooks, kits and individual patterns, through December 31, 2015, will be donated to Raphael House of Portland (http://raphaelhouse.com/), a domestic violence agency committed to engaging our entire community in non-violent living through advocacy, education, and community outreach, and by providing a safe haven from domestic violence.

The tall fir trees on the Snowy Woods hat are created with traveling twisted stitches on a reverse stockinette background. Instructions for the trees are provided in both chart and written form. The hat can be adjusted for size by increasing or decreasing the stockinette background stitches; instructions are in the pattern.

I designed this hat as a companion piece to my Snowy Woods Cowl, which features additional intertwining cabled trees as well as the fir trees on this Snowy Woods Hat.
