ELLE&LUI hat
Discover the perfect knitting pattern for a stylish hat designed for HIM or HER! This cozy hat features a double-thick ribbed edge, expertly crafted to keep your ears warm during chilly days. In this pattern, I will guide you through three different methods to achieve the double thickness ribbing: one beginner-friendly method using a standard cast-on technique, and two advanced methods utilizing a provisional cast-on. Whether you’re a novice or an experienced knitter, you'll find the perfect technique to suit your skill level and preferences.
MATERIALS: For this delightful hat, you'll need one skein of suggested worsted weight yarn, such as SWEATER by Artfil (100% merino wool, 100 g/220 yds per skein), or mr-ee-nowz by Natpicar (100% merino wool, 115 g/200 yds per skein). Alternatively, you can use DROPS KARISMA by Garnstudio, which is a DK weight yarn composed of 100% wool (50 g/109 yds per ball); for this option, stock up on 2 balls. Additionally, you will require circular needles in US size 6, a stitch marker, and a cable needle to complete your project.
GAUGE: Achieving the correct gauge is essential for ensuring your hat fits perfectly. To do this, create a knitting swatch that measures 4 inches in k2p2 ribbing using US size 6 needles. Your target gauge should be 26 stitches and 32 rows.
SIZES: This hat pattern accommodates a range of sizes, making it suitable for everyone. Choose from Small (S = 20 inches), Medium (M = 22 inches), or Large (L = 24 inches) to ensure a comfortable fit for you or your gift recipient.
