Pebble Bay Hat

Discover the Pebble Bay Hat knitting pattern, designed to be worked top down in the round, on the wrong side. This technique allows for a unique knitting experience where you’ll be doing more knitting than purling. While this hat is traditionally styled for men using a plain yarn, it truly shines when crafted from special variegated skeins that you may have stashed away, just waiting for the perfect project.

The sizes provided feature up to 1 inch of negative ease, ensuring a snug and comfortable fit. Plus, the pattern’s stretchy nature allows for easy adjustments, perfect for creating the ideal fit that suits your needs.

This versatile pattern allows you to use lighter yarns doubled, making it an excellent choice for utilizing your stash of unique skeins.
