Mute

Introducing the Mute hat, a cozy and lightweight accessory designed to perfectly complement the beautiful Mutation cowl. This versatile knitting pattern features both the Mute/brim and the Mute/edge variations, allowing you to style your hat in multiple ways, as it can be worn on either the right or wrong side. Whether you're heading out for a crisp autumn walk or staying cozy indoors, the Mute hat is a perfect choice for any occasion.

This comprehensive pattern includes a detailed photo tutorial along with a video tutorial that covers the honeycomb brioche technique and the unique brioche stitch pattern, making it accessible for both beginners and experienced knitters alike. You'll love learning these exciting techniques as you create your very own Mute hat.

The sample hat is crafted using DyeForYarn's luxurious Merino Baby Camel yarn, a single ply blend consisting of 55% Merino and 45% Camel, boasting 480 meters (or 524 yards) per 100 grams. For an alternative option, I highly recommend BC Garn Baby Alpaca in two contrasting shades, which will beautifully enhance the texture and visual appeal of the hat.

When it comes to gauge, aim for 26-28 stitches x 36 rows = 10 x 10 cm (4 x 4 inches) in stockinette stitch using the main needle. While achieving the row gauge isn't essential for this project, it's important to swatch and determine the most suitable needle size for your individual knitting style. I've provided suggested needle sizes as a guideline, but keep in mind that every knitter has their unique tension. For the best results, remember to wash your swatch in the same manner as you plan to care for the finished item, always considering the care instructions on your yarn label.

Get ready to enhance your knitting repertoire with the Mute hat pattern—your go-to accessory for warmth and style!
