Chai Hat Knitting Pattern
There's nothing quite like curling up with a cozy cup of hot chai tea, a ritual that warms my heart and soul and fills me with blissful happiness. This delightful Chai Hat embodies the same relaxing and comforting essence that a steaming cup of chai provides—a soft, warm hug with a hint of spice. Crafted from gorgeously warm Alpaca wool and featuring a chunky cable design, what’s not to adore about this beautiful accessory?
This Chai Hat is cleverly knitted inside out to minimize purling, resulting in a quick and enjoyable project that utilizes just 100g of chunky yarn. Perfect for beginners and seasoned knitters alike, this pattern is suitable for all skill levels. Available in three sizes, you can create a personalized fit for anyone in your family!
Traditionally, chai refers to a spiced tea, often made with robust black tea leaves. However, my personal favorite is a delightful brew of South African Rooibos tea.
