Kay 7036

KAY is the ultimate cosy “topper” for winter! This unique piece combines the best features of a balaclava, a hat, and a cowl, making KAY a versatile addition to your winter wardrobe. When the temperature drops, wear it up to envelop your head and ears in warmth. As the day warms up, simply push it down for a stylish look that still provides comfort. It can be tucked snugly inside your winter coat or worn elegantly over a sweater or jacket. Whichever way you choose to style it, KAY is bound to keep you cosy and chic! Crafted mainly in the round, this pattern features no seams, allowing the smooth stocking stitch to showcase the rich textures and colors of the tweedy yarn beautifully.

SIZE: KAY measures 70 cm (27½ in) in width around the lower edge, with a thoughtful length of 53 cm (20¾ in) from the top of the hood section to the cast-on edge, ensuring a snug fit for all.

MATERIALS: To complete KAY, you'll need 4 balls of Willow & Lark Heath, totaling 200g. A 4mm (no 8) (US 6) circular needle that is no longer than 50 cm is also essential for this project.

TENSION: Achieve the perfect fit with a tension of 22 stitches and 28 rows to 4 inches (10 cm), measured over stocking stitch using 4mm (US 6) needles, ensuring your KAY topper has the ideal structure and warmth.

This pattern is perfect for knitters seeking comfort and warmth during the chilly months. Enjoy crafting KAY and step out confidently in a cozy accessory that complements any winter outfit!
