Notes

This hat is a combination of the Chickadee Ski Hat and Selbu Modern. I had modified both the chickadee chart and the Selbu chart so that they work well with DK weight yarn. I’m definitely going to knit this again!

I’ve received a few questions about the braided trim. Here is how I work it:

Round 1: Knit 1 MC, Knit 1 CC around.

Round 2: Move both MC and CC to the front of your work. Purl 1 MC, pick up CC and bring it over the MC strand, purl 1 CC. Continue purling in this manner bringing working yarn over the strand used for the previous stitch. The two yarns will become
very twisted during this round but will be untwisted as you knit round 3

Round 3: Purl 1 MC, purl 1 CC, tucking yarn under the previously worked strand.
