Pixie Hat with Pompoms
Make a bold fashion statement this winter with our modern twist on the classic 1940s-style Pixie hat. This stunning knitted accessory is not only eye-catching but also incredibly quick and straightforward to create, thanks to the use of double yarn throughout the pattern. The large pompoms add a playful touch, resulting in a fun and functional winter warmer that will keep you cozy and stylish during the colder months.
Designed to fit a circumference of 50-60cm (19¾-23½in) when stretched and measuring 52cm (20½in) in length (excluding pompoms), this hat is perfect for most adult sizes. With just a few simple materials, you can craft your own unique Pixie hat. You'll need four 50g balls of DK (US Worsted) wool; note that this pattern requires DK yarn to be used double throughout. By using two strands of DK instead of a single strand of chunky (bulky) yarn, you gain access to a much wider palette of colors, allowing for endless customization possibilities
To get started, grab a pair of 5.5mm (US 9) knitting needles and either a card for making pompoms or a Clover pompom gadget for the finishing touches. Dive into this delightful knitting project and create a stylish accessory that truly stands out in any crowd. Whether you're a seasoned knitter or a beginner looking to hone your skills, this Pixie hat pattern is the perfect blend of fun and functionality for your winter wardrobe.
