Brrrrr….snow arrived in Auckland the same week that Fibre Co Worsted arrived in the shop. A warm hat was definitely in demand!

Featuring the quilted warmth of a rhythmic slipped stitch pattern, and knitted on a 6.00mm needle, this hat is a quick knit. Plus, you can skip the ribbing (whew!) and still cast off a hat that will fit most noggins (my hat fits my 9yo daughter up to dear hubby’s big ol’ 24inch head).

The capper? It’s free! Even better, if you are a yarn store who stocks this yarn, you have my permission to print this .pdf -- as it is, without alteration, please -- and distribute it to your customers for no charge.
