Berlin Skyline Hat
Inspired by my wonderful friends, Steffi and Marion at [Yarn Over Berlin][1], I’m excited to share this unique hat knitting pattern featuring iconic Berlin architecture. The design showcases a beautiful blend of colors, using Crazy Zauberball in vibrant blues and greens, reminiscent of Berlin's lush greenery and stunning blue skies during summer. For a different vibe, consider knitting your hat in warm shades of reds and oranges to capture the breathtaking beauty of a Berlin sunset.
Skill Level: Intermediate
SIZE: One size fits most
Finished Measurements: 19” circumference at brim, unstretched after blocking
Gauge: 24 sts x 28 rows to 10cm/4" on 3 mm needles in the color-work pattern using larger needles.
Needles: 2.5mm double pointed needles or a 120 cm long circular needle for magic loop technique. Use 3 mm double pointed needles and, if desired, the same 120 cm long circular needle for magic loop.
Yarn: 50g each of Regia Silk 4-ply (black) and Crazy Zauberball from Schoppel Wolle, color number 1153 2085. Any fingering weight sock yarn will also work beautifully for this project.
This hat pattern is my original design, and I encourage you to try your hand at it. You can use this pattern to create a wonderful handmade piece that will not only keep you warm but also showcase your knitting skills. Whether you’re making it for yourself or as a thoughtful gift, it’s sure to be a hit!
Explore your creativity, and don’t hesitate to experiment with different color combinations to reflect your own style and the vibrant spirit of Berlin. Happy knitting!
