Murek
Introducing the Murek knitting pattern, inspired by the charming Polish term for a little brick wall. This versatile 2-in-1 pattern provides you with step-by-step instructions to create both a cozy hat and a stylish matching scarf. Perfect for knitters looking to explore creative color combinations and textures in their projects, the Murek pattern is a must-have addition to your knitting repertoire.
Available in one universal size, the hat is designed to fit a head circumference of 56-58 cm (22-23 inches) and has a length of 21 cm (8.5 inches) from the cast-on edge to the peak of the hat. The accompanying scarf measures 25 cm (10 inches) in width and 150 cm (60 inches) in length, making it a delightful accessory for any season. Whether you want to keep warm during winter or add a pop of color to your spring wardrobe, this pattern has you covered!
The Murek pattern requires aran weight yarn in two contrasting colors, making it a fantastic choice for mixing and matching different yarns. For the hat, you will need approximately 75 meters (82 yards) of color A and 75 meters (82 yards) of color B. The scarf will require approximately 75 meters (82 yards) of color A and an additional 225 meters (246 yards) of color B. Sample projects were crafted using Garnstudio DROPS Nepal in color 3620 Red (A) and color 6790 Blue (B) for a vibrant look that stands out.
To create the Murek hat and scarf, you will need recommended needle sizes of US #7 (4.5 mm) and US #8 (5.00 mm) circular needles. Achieve the perfect gauge of 18 stitches x 24 rows over a 10 cm (4 inch) swatch in stockinette stitch using the larger needles. Additionally, don't forget to have a stitch marker, hook, or tapestry needle on hand to assist with your project.
