Here Comes the Sun (hat)
Introducing our delightful slouchy ribbed beret, a must-have accessory for any knitwear enthusiast! This stunning piece features a brilliant orange-yellow hue and an enchanting swirling star pattern at the top, making it the most cheerful addition to your wardrobe. Perfect for chasing away the winter blues or celebrating the arrival of spring, this hat is sure to brighten any outfit. Crafted using just under one skein of premium Malabrigo Twist yarn, this beret utilizes simple knit and purl stitches, alongside increases and decreases, allowing you to create this beautiful piece in just a few days.
It's important to note that the natural inclination of ribbing is to compress significantly, resulting in a snug, beanie-like fit before blocking. Don't worry—this adorable hat will transform into its intended slouchy shape once you wet-block it over a dinner plate, providing the perfect fit and style.
But why stop there? To complete your cheerful winter ensemble, check out our matching reversible scarf pattern! Inspired by Barbara Walker's Flame Rib design, this scarf elegantly showcases increases and decreases to create a gently undulating shape. Knit with two skeins of Malabrigo Twist, this scarf is both wide and slightly short, making it an ideal length for wrapping around your neck once and tucking into your coat. For an added layer of warmth, I love leaving the ribs compressed for a thick and cozy texture that feels luxurious against your skin. Embrace the joy of knitting with these vibrant patterns and elevate your winter wardrobe today!
