This is a long stocking hat that has a tassel on the end. It was designed because I see the popularity of the Nisselue hats right now after recent events in Minneapolis, and I wanted to participate, but I couldn’t find many stocking hats designed for the knitting machine. I did find the pattern by Skeindeer which I really liked, but the idea of knitting it by hand was daunting. So I translated it to machine and made a few adjustments to the knitting method and added a different method of sizing.

The pattern is free, but if the spirit moves you, please make a donation to a charitable organization supporting immigrant rights in Minneapolis, or in your local community.

I will be contributing to the Haitian Support Center in Springfield, Ohio. Their website is https://haitiansupportcenter.org/
