Ballard
Help Us Celebrate Scout’s 2 Year Anniversary! Through April 21st, 2020 all patterns in the Scout Collection are 50% Off. No Code needed!
Ballard is worked in the round from the bottom up. Once the brim is complete, increased are worked and the body of the hat is worked in stranded colorwork from a chart. You will work the 8 stitch repeat 14 times around.
Integrated decreases shape the crown. Change to double pointed needles when the circumference of the hat is to small to fit on the circular needle.
