Hugs and Kisses Hat
Discover the delightful blend of softness and style with our charming beanie pattern, created in collaboration with Blue Mule Fiber. This lovely hat is expertly crafted using Dibe DK yarn, renowned for its luxurious 100% 19.5 micron Superwash Merino wool, combined with the ethereal Wisp Lace, a beautiful mohair silk blend. The result is a hat that feels huggably soft against your skin while keeping you cozy and warm. The beanie features an eye-catching cable pattern with alternating X's and knit squares, adding a unique texture that elevates your winter wardrobe. To enhance its cuteness, a large pom pom adorns the top, making this beanie a stylish accessory for all occasions. This pattern guides you to knit the hat from the bottom ribbing up to the crown, ensuring a secure fit and beautiful finish.
