Dipole is the hat you’ll grab again and again when the weather turns chilly. The scrumptious fisherman’s rib creates a squishy soft, vertically stripped body, while the the folded brim keeps your ears warm and cozy.

Video support shows you how to do a 1x1 knitted cast one as well as how to complete a knit 1 below and purl 1 below for the fisherman’s rib.
