This one-skein wonder is perfect for adding a touch of whimsy to your winter accessories, all while staying warm and stylish. Available in sizes from teen to adult large—and even with tips to make a toddler-sized version—Snowdrop Hat is a project that grows with your family and adds a sprinkle of charm to every winter wardrobe.

Wear it Your Way
Designed for versatility, the Snowdrop Hat can be styled with a folded brim for extra warmth or left unfolded for a more relaxed, slouchy vibe. The pattern includes both charted and written instructions, making it accessible for every knitter’s preference.

Construction Overview

Snowdrop Hat is worked in the round, from the brim to the crown. It begins with a 2x1 twisted ribbing for a snug, polished fit before moving into a captivating cable and bobble pattern. Follow along with the chart or written instructions to shape the body, leading up to a gathered crown closure. Simply thread yarn through the remaining stitches, weave in the ends, and you’re done!

  • Includes charted and written instructions.
