Knit in a wonderfully textured reversible broken rib, this simple hat pattern gives you four different styling options with just one stitch pattern! Fold up a brim to keep your ears extra cozy, or leave it slouchy for a more laid back look.

This pattern is perfect for showing off your favorite worsted weight wool. You have the option of adding a small stripe at the brim for an extra accent, or stick with one color to highlight a hand-spun or hand-dyed yarn.

Gauge is not super critical for this project, as long as you’re in the worsted weight ballpark, since size can be adjusted in blocking - or not! The sample shown in Malabrigo Rios (“Liquidambar”) was NOT blocked, leaving it a bit snugger and squishier, while the sample in Cascade Eco Cloud was wet-blocked, giving it a more defined shape and a bit more room to breathe.
