The Ministik hat is worked in the round from brim to crown. The stretchy ribbing flows into a stocking stitch body with a twisted stitch panel, and then into rapid, swirling decreases at the crown.

This issue is on sale from 10th December in supermarkets, newsagents and craft stores across the UK and on our website. It will also be available digitally via our apps for Apple and Android devices and through Pocketmags here.

A modified version of the pattern is now available: Ministik 2.
