Lakeview Hat

Whether you prefer the snug warmth of a classic beanie hat or the relaxed vibe of a modern slouchy hat, the Lakeview Hat is your perfect accessory! This versatile unisex design caters to every family member with six head sizes and two unique crown options to choose from. The hat is specifically crafted to fit snugly around the widest part of the head, so opt for a size that offers a couple of inches of negative ease—meaning it should be at least a couple inches smaller than your actual head circumference for a comfortable fit.

You can select from two distinct crown styles: the closer-fitting beanie crown provides a traditional, cozy fit, while the looser-fitting slouchy crown gives you a trendy, laid-back look. The Lakeview Hat is ingeniously worked in a single piece, starting from the ribbed edge and seamlessly progressing upward. It features an eye-catching cabled panel of twisted stitches that pops against a beautiful double moss stitch background, making it not only practical but also a stylish addition to your winter wardrobe.

Materials Needed

This pattern calls for worsted-weight yarn with approximately 145 yards [133 meters] per 100 grams [3.5 ounces].
