Carmi
Hats are an exceptional way to experiment with bold and funky colors in your knitting projects. With the versatility of hats, you don't need to invest in a lot of yarn, and almost everyone already has a classic black coat that will perfectly complement their vibrant hat! Whether you're looking to stand out or simply keep warm, a colorful hat is the ideal accessory.
Construction Notes
Introducing the Carmi hat, a delightful standard brim-up hat pattern featuring a blend of texture, stripes, and fun checkerboard colorwork. This pattern offers four distinct sizes ranging from children's through adult large, with an added bonus of deep and shallow options for each size. In total, you will have 8 versatile sizing options at your disposal! But that's not all—the color combinations you can create are virtually endless! You can choose from three different color combinations to make your hat truly unique. Depending on which sizes you decide to knit, you can create two or three fantastic hats from just three skeins of yarn.
Skills Required
This pattern is suitable for knitters with a range of skills, including basic techniques such as knit and purl, as well as advanced skills like ssk and k2tog.
