Immerse yourself in the captivating texture of Desert Rose Hat, a one-skein wonder that brings a touch of the floral desert landscape to your wardrobe. With just one skein of worsted weight yarn, knit a versatile hat that features a beautifully cabled texture reminiscent of the intricate desert rose.

Construction Overview:
This pattern is a no-fuss knit with rewarding results. You’ll begin with a ribbed brim, then continue in the round, following a straightforward chart (or written instructions) that guide you through the cabled body to the crown which is knit with twisted stitches, designed to mimic the petals of a desert rose. It’s a project with clear instructions, both charted and written, making it accessible for knitters looking to develop their skills or enjoy a quick knit.

Specifications:

• Yarn: Magpie Quartet Worsted - 100% Superfine SW Merino, 210 yds/100g. For best results, we recommend a yarn with at least some animal fibers, a nice twist for stitch definition and a semi-solid or tonal solid to complement and not compete with the cabled textures.

• Yardage: 180 (200) yards - 164 (182) meters.

• Needles: US 6 (4.00mm) 16-40” circular for the brim, US 8 (5.00mm) 16-40” circular for the body.

• Gauge: 3.5” per chart A repeat (unstretched).

• Sizes: Adult S (Adult L) - Width: 8.5 (8.75)“ 21.5 (22)cm, Length: 9.5 (10.5)” 24 (26.5)cm, Brim Length: 2.5 (2.5)“ 6.5 (6.5)cm remember, ribbing is designed to be stretchy and worn with significant negative ease, therefore the unstretched 17” circumference of the size small would be appropriate for a size 20-22” head and the size large is for up to a size 23.5” ish. Of course this easily adjusted by blocking and/or sizing up or down for your ribbing according to your tension for ribbing.

Desert Rose Hat is an ode to simplicity and elegance in knitting, perfect for those who love to see complex beauty emerge from their own hands.
