Meira Hat
Discover the charm of our beautifully crafted hat pattern, featuring a simple yet eye-catching cabled edge that pops with stunning tonal yarn and vibrant variegated colorways. This versatile hat pattern is available in three sizes and includes detailed instructions on how to customize the fit to ensure the perfect wear. It's an excellent knitting project for those looking to practice cabling techniques without the need for a cable needle!

Finished Size: The hat comes in three sizes with a comfortable circumference at the brim of 20.8”, 22.4”, and 24”. All sizes are designed to stretch an additional 2-3”, providing a cozy fit for different head sizes.
Yarn Requirements: For this project, we recommend a DK weight yarn such as Dragonfly Fibers Traveler, which has a generous yardage of 280 yards per 113g skein. Our sample was beautifully knit in the colorway Catelyn, requiring approximately 160 yards for the medium size. Choose your favorite variegated or tonal yarn to make this hat truly yours!
Needles You'll Need: To get started, you'll require a set of US5/3.75mm 16” circular needles, along with your preferred method to knit small circumferences in the round. This will ensure your stitches are neat and uniform as you work through the pattern.
Gauge: Achieving a proper gauge is important for this hat. Aim for 20 stitches and 24 rounds in stockinette stitch. While row gauge is not as critical, focusing on stitches per inch will help you create a perfectly fitting hat. We provide detailed measurements rather than a specific row count, making it easy for you to stay on track.
Whether you’re knitting for yourself or as a gift, this versatile hat pattern is perfect for various occasions. Get started on your knitting journey today with this engaging pattern and explore the joys of creating beautiful accessories that you can wear proudly!
