Carter hat

Introducing the versatile Carter hat, a unisex knitted accessory that combines style and functionality. This chic hat is crafted using ribbing techniques with an elegant Italian cast-on and seamlessly integrated decreases at the top, which align perfectly with the overall rib pattern. Designed to be worked in the round on 4mm needles, the Carter hat offers a quick yet rewarding knitting experience.

You have the option to create the Carter hat with or without a folded edge, catering to your personal style preferences. The pattern includes detailed instructions for both variations, so you can customize your look. The featured brown Carter hat in the accompanying image showcases the option with a folded edge, providing extra warmth and a polished finish. This hat is designed as a one-size-fits-all accessory, making it suitable for a wide range of head sizes. The ribbing method used in the pattern ensures exceptional stretch, allowing for maximum comfort and fit.

Knitting Gauge

For the perfect fit, the Carter hat features a gauge of 10x10 cm achieved with 22 stitches and 23 rows on 4mm needles in ribbing (knit 1, purl 1) without blocking. When measuring your gauge, be sure to check it when the ribbing lies flat and is not stretched, to ensure accuracy.

Whether you're a seasoned knitter or a beginner looking to hone your skills, the Carter hat is an excellent project to add to your collection. With its simple yet elegant design and adaptable size, it's perfect for gift-giving or cozy self-wear.
