Introducing the KEATON Hat, your perfect accessory for warmth and style! This squishy, versatile, and cozy bulky hat pattern is designed for knitters of all skill levels, especially beginners.

Sized from Baby to Adult Large, you can create matching hats for yourself and your friends in a variety of stunning colors, making it a fantastic project for gift-giving or family outings.

YARN: The pattern is beautifully showcased using Quince & Co. Puffin in the gorgeous colorway Clay and Patons Classic Wool Roving in the elegant Taupe. Whether you stick to these colors or explore other fabulous hues, your KEATON Hat will surely stand out!

NEEDLES: For this project, you will need 8mm / US 11 needles. We recommend using a 32-inch circular needle for the Magic Loop Method, or alternatively, a 16-inch circular needle along with one set of double-pointed needles (DPNs) to complete your hat smoothly.

GAUGE: To achieve the perfect fit, maintain a gauge of 12 stitches and 16 rows, which equals 4 inches/10 cm in stockinette stitch. Ensuring you meet this gauge will help your hat turn out just right!

NOTIONS: Don't forget to gather essential notions, including 1 stitch marker and a yarn needle, to assist in your knitting process and to finish your hat beautifully.

FINISHED MEASUREMENTS: Once completed, the KEATON Hat will have a brim circumference of approximately 16 (18, 20, 21, 22, 23) inches / 41 (46, 51, 53, 56, 58) cm (unstretched) and a length of 6.75 (7.5, 9.25, 10.25, 10.75, 11.25) inches / 19 (22, 23, 26, 27, 29) cm.
