Kaarna Hat

Kaarna Hat is a stunning accessory featuring an elegant, classic cable pattern paired with a plush folded double brim. This stylish beanie is crafted in the round, beginning with a provisional cast-on, which adds to its seamless look. The cozy brim is fashioned using a K1P1 rib technique, allowing for a snug fit, while the stitches from the provisional cast-on edge are skillfully joined to create a permanent folded double brim for added warmth and comfort. Complete instructions for the beautiful cable pattern are provided in both written and charted formats, making it easy for knitters of all levels to follow along. Additionally, you have the flexibility to adjust the height of the hat according to the cable pattern repeat, customizing it to your style preferences.

Suggested Yarn: For the Kaarna Hat, we recommend *Rowan Kid Classic, with a weight of 50g / 140m / 153yds x 2, which yields approximately 220 yards (205 m). This premium yarn provides the ideal texture and warmth for your hat. However, feel free to explore other yarns of similar weight, but be sure to check the gauge to ensure a proper fit!

Gauge: To achieve the perfect fit, please note our gauge specifications: For the ribbing, aim for 22 stitches and 23 rows over a 4’’ (10 cm) square using US size 6 (4mm) knitting needles. For the stockinette stitch and main cable pattern, you’ll want to achieve 19 stitches and 18 rows over a 4’’ (10 cm) square using US size 8 (5mm) knitting needles.

The Kaarna Hat is not only functional but also makes a fantastic gift for friends or family members looking for warmth during chilly weather.
