A simple and quick bicorn hat, with a bit of a bonnet brim for extra warmth.

This pattern is part of a set of 6 whimsical patterns for super chunky yarn, inspired by Alice In Wonderland. Each can be whipped up in an hour or so, or before breakfast, (but perhaps not all on the same day).

All designs are based on tubes, as a nod to the rabbit hole that started the whole adventure…

Each project was made from a single skein of White Gum Wool Rope Yarn (48 ply).

The Autumn Gradient for this hat was made by Melissa of Changeling Coloured Yarns.

• Sizing: 38sts x 27rnds = 27cm x 24cm (10½ x 9½”) when laid flat, to fit 54 - 59cm (20-23”) head.
 For a larger or smaller hat, cast on more or less sts - each st adds approx. 1.4cm.

• Pattern is written only, with recipe included for altering the size.

• Sample used 58m (63y).

• Needles: 9mm (US size 13), but opt for a size larger (or more) if you’re a tight knitter.

This set was designed with White Gum Wool Rope yarn in mind, but you can make a 48ply-equivalent by holding multiple yarns/strands together, or with an icord maker, or you may be able to make use of a stash of finger knitting.
