One day, my aunt told me that staying at home everyday makes her unable to tell what day is today … a simple reason for me to design Seven Brioche Hats for A WEEK. The patterns are named Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. They are not by order of difficulty but the order that I finished the designs.

A WEEK consists of basic Brioche Knitting skills (brk, brp, brRsl & brLsl & br4st dec, brkyobrk, br4st inc … brioche cable stitches, tuck stitches). In addition, I re-arranged some stitches (ss-brk, pyop, pyo2p …) for the patterns.

Wednesday Details:
Skills: k, brk, brp, sl1yo, brLsl / brRsl dec, T3R, brLX, brRX
Yarn Col A Pink: Hayfield Bonus DK Extra Vaule Shade 0992 100g 280m 100% Acrylic
Yarn Col B Dark Grey: Hayfield Bonus DK Extra Vaule Shade 0790 100g 280m 100% Acrylic
Estimated Finished Size: 52cm circumference x 26cm height (without blocking)
Estimated Yarn Consumption: Col A 35g / Col B 35g
Needles and Others: 4mm x 40cm circular / 4mm x 17cm double pointed knitting needles / a cable needle

Size: One size only. I usually knit loosely. If you knit tightly, you can use needles of a larger size. Besides, as the number of pattern repeats may not be changed easily, I suggest using needles of a smaller or larger size for minor size adjustments.

I enjoy reading both books, more I read, more I learn and more ideas I gain.

I knit for cancer patients, elderlies and animals, and all Hat Patterns are designed for charity. Your purchase means your support to me. If you are a charity knitter, just leave a comment and I will send the pattern as a gift and my support to you. Thank you!

The Wednesday Pattern is the 21st pattern of “Memory 50”.
”Memory 50” is a special project to myself, for myself - to publish 50 patterns before Mid-September 2020.
I know it sounds crazy, but I’ll give it my best shot.
