Value for Value: In order to both make my knitting patterns more available and support my work, I’m switching to a value for value model . You can find all of my patterns for download at withwool.com and support my work through Ko-fi with a one time donation or by becoming a monthly supporter.

You can also buy patterns through Ravelry and get them into your library. In keeping with value for value, you can use the coupons below to pay what you want.

The hat is knit from the stem down and uses a variety of techniques: knitting, purling, working in the round, yarn overs, a variety of lifted increases, decreases, and EZ’s sewn cast off.

The pattern is not written for any specific way of knitting (DPN’s, Magic Loop, 2 Circulars, etc) so you can easily use your favorite method without translation. However, 4 stitch markers are necessary whatever your method.

Minimal yardage required. The hat uses far less than one skein which makes for great stash busting of that errant, leftover yarn.


Thanks to kindly email, I’ve learned about a small error in the printed version of the pattern. Row 21 of the 0-6 month size should end with “…k3, k2tog,” and not “k1, k2tog.”
