This beautiful beanie knits up easily and quickly. Named for the rich vegetation of the Ridgeline trails in Eugene, Oregon, this hat is full of texture.

The hat is worked in the round from the brim up. A 2x2 ribbed brim is followed by a simple knit and purl stitch pattern. The top of the hat uses rapid decreases for a scrunched look and it’s topped with a pom-pom. Sizes are included for babies and children as well as adults. The stitch pattern is both written and charted.

Sample is 17.75” size
