Montreal Hat
Introducing the Montreal Set, a warm and stylish knitting pattern designed to keep you cozy during the coldest winters in Canada. Inspired by my best friend who braves the frosty winters, this delightful collection features a hat, cowl, and mittens, perfect for layering up when temperatures drop.
The hat is expertly crafted from the top down, allowing for easy adjustments in length, making it customizable to your preference. The body of the hat showcases beautiful stockinette stitch, ideal for highlighting the charms of a variegated yarn, while the border boasts striking, large short cables knit with a plain yarn for a stunning contrast. This design combines warmth and elegance, making it a must-have accessory for winter.
Designed with slight negative ease (1-2 cm [0.5-1'']), the hat fits snugly while ensuring maximum comfort. The finished hat comes in two sizes, with a circumference of 49 cm (19.25'') and 55 cm (21.5''), catering to a range of head sizes.
To achieve the best results, the pattern specifies a gauge of 13 stitches and 16 rounds = 10 cm (4") in stockinette stitch in the round after blocking, ensuring that your knitwear will have the perfect fit and feel.
This comprehensive pattern has been professionally tech-edited and test-knit, guaranteeing clarity and precision for every knitter, from beginners to advanced. Embrace the chill of winter with the Montreal Set and enjoy the satisfaction of creating your own warm, handmade accessories. Get ready to cozy up in style with this essential knitting pattern!
