Stretch your skills a bit with this one. It’s a bit more work, butI promise, it’s not a puzzle.

Wavy welts travel around the head in this sweet little hat. Done in feather and fan while knitting the rows from top to bottom along with short row shaping give this hat a new and interesting look. There are no circular needles required as it is knit flat. There is a straight forward written pattern, no stitch chart nor diagram.

So just cast on to straight needles and work flat. The only stitches you need to know are knit, purl, slip stitch, knit two together and knit two into one. The finished hat will have just enough stretch and a feminine, sophisticated look.

Make it for yourself, then start on your friend’s requests.

I like to keep the price of my patterns low because as a knitter, I know that I’d rather spend my money on lovely yarns than on patterns but this pattern took considerably more work to complete than the others hence the greater cost to the user. Happy knitting.

** WARNING; The making of these hats with this pattern might be habit forming. These even more so than the previously listed patterns. You could find yourself with far too many of these sweet little wavy welted hats so be prepared to share.

Trust the pattern, keep going, really, it will be a sweet hat when you are finished!
