Millstream Hat
Introducing our charming Stranded Colorwork Hat Pattern, designed to beautifully mimic the popular Millstream Mitts. This stylish hat is worked in the round, seamlessly transitioning from a cozy brim to a delightfully slouchy crown, making it the perfect accessory for any wardrobe.
Notes: For your convenience, you'll only need one skein of the main color and one skein of the contrast color to create both the hat and the matching Millstream Mitts. This makes it an economical choice for those looking to create a complete winter set!
Skills Required: This project is perfect for intermediate knitters and those looking to build their skills. You will need to be familiar with casting on, knitting, purling, stranded colorwork, knitting through the back loop, and knitting in the round using double-pointed needles. This pattern will help you enhance your knitting abilities as you tackle new techniques.
Finished Measurements: The hat measures 18 inches (46 cm) in circumference at the brim, unstretched, and extends to a height of 9.5 inches (24 cm) from brim to crown. It stretches comfortably to fit an average head circumference of 22 inches (56 cm), ensuring a snug yet comfortable fit for most adults.
