Ever wear a knit hat and feel like your ears are still cold but your head is too warm? The Rockfoil Hat pattern is the solution. Designed with a fun construction technique, it gives extra warmth around the ears with a cozy brim, while the lighter, airy crown keeps things breathable on top. It’s perfect for those who want more coverage than a headband but less heat than a full beanie. Rockfoil is named after the resilient flower that thrives in both cold and heat, a fitting symbol for this balanced design. The look is bold yet delicate, and the fit is just right for cool, windy days. Knit in the round from the bottom up, this pattern includes several techniques that will challenge your focus and skills while rewarding you with a beautifully functional finish. It is one size and can fit women, teens, and some men.
