Kennett Hat

Discover the beauty of a stockinette stitch hat featuring a stunning cable wheat sheaf design, expertly crafted for knitting in the round. This versatile knitting pattern is available in three different versions to suit your yarn preferences: fingering weight, DK weight, and worsted weight. Each version offers a unique option for knitters, allowing you to choose the thickness that works best for your project.

This customizable pattern lets you create a hat with your desired level of intricacy; you can opt to knit one, two, or even three cable blocks, giving you the freedom to personalize your accessory! For the DK and worsted weight versions, I knitted a cozy 4” ribbed brim—ideal for wearing folded or as a standout feature. In contrast, the fingering weight version features a stylish 1” ribbed brim, complemented by three consecutive cable patterns that add texture and elegance.

Inside this comprehensive pattern, you will find detailed instructions for three sizes, ensuring a perfect fit for everyone. Additionally, the following gauge recommendations will help you achieve the best results: For fingering weight, use a Size 5 needle; for DK weight, aim for 20 stitches/28 rows = 4" stockinette on a Size 6 needle; and for worsted weight, aim for 20 stitches/24 rows = 4” stockinette on a Size 7 needle.
