This charming hat was made to match the Winter Plumage Scarf! It is worked in the same stem lace pattern that the scarf features, with the decorative addition of one lovely lacy leaf worked into the hat’s body.
The hat begins with a wonderfully stretchy elastic cast on. (Complete instructions on how to work this cast on method are included in the pattern.) After a band of ribbing increases are worked into the stem lace pattern. The leaf is worked as the body of the hat grows, and then the crown decreases are worked in the stem lace pattern. A cozy and attractive hat is the final result! Combined with the matching scarf you’ll have a striking set of exceptionally fine feathers to plume yourself in all winter long!
