Wonder Woman Hat is a pattern for you! Wonder woman!
It´s another fully reversible brioche-wonder.

The hat has a brim, a zigzag allover pattern, is very stretchy and slouchy at the same time.

As you might know, I love it to combine contrasting colors. It was easy to find an intense red and a golden yellow, but the pattern wasn´t easy to find.

Must admit that I had to ravel it several times.
I tried to keep the pattern simple, based on basic brioche stitches, increases and decreases. But nevertheless there are several “br4stdec” to be knit. You can do it, knitters!

The hat can be knit in multiple sizes only by changing needle size and gauge; Block the finished hat over a steep-sided bowl or other head-shaped form to smooth the stitches and the crown.
