This was the first hat I designed when I decided it might be fun to try designing hats. I loved the process from beginning to end, and couldn’t help designing a bunch more hats. The stitch pattern is very basic; it’s a 2-stitch column that shifts 1 stitch to the left every other round. You can change the length of the hat to whatever you want it to be.
The stitch pattern is presented in written format.
