TWO VERSIONS plus TWO CROWNS in one pattern !!!

Soft circles seem to float across the surface of this cozy hat, creating a playful yet sophisticated look. Work it in two, three or more colors for a different vibe for a kid or adult. The little “pearls” are formed with a slip-stitch pattern, using only one color throughout the round.

This stitch pattern is adding subtle texture and dimension to the fabric.

The hat is worked in the round from the brim to the crown, with a twisted ribbed brim that transitions naturally into the patterned section.

Choose between the two suggested crown shaping methods.

The combination of an easy-to-wear shape and an engaging stitch pattern makes Floating Pearls a fun project to knit—and an easy accessory to wear.

Choose classic neutrals or play with contrasting colors and let your pearls float!
