Pogonip Hat

Introducing the Pogonip hat, the ultimate chunky and extra soft accessory you need to embrace winter in style. This cozy beanie is designed with an eye-catching stitch detail and topped with a big, fluffy pompom, making it both fashionable and functional. Wear it loose for a trendy slouchy look or pull it down over your ears for maximum warmth and comfort during those chilly winter days. Whether you're out for a winter walk, hitting the slopes, or just enjoying a cozy evening at home, the Pogonip hat is your go-to companion.
Yarn:
When selecting your yarn, consider that Rasta is less bouncy compared to other merino yarns, so it’s advisable to choose a larger size if you find yourself between sizes. Keep in mind that the large adult version of the Pogonip hat can be crafted using just one skein of yarn, making it a budget-friendly project, especially if you choose to omit the pompom or fill it in with leftover yarns from previous projects.

Gauge: Achieve a gauge of 9.5 stitches and 23 rounds to 4 inches in a woven stitch pattern using larger needles, lightly steam-blocked for best results. Additionally, the stockinette stitch gauge measures 9 stitches and 13 rounds in 4 inches. This comprehensive gauge information will help you achieve the perfect fit and ensure your Pogonip hat turns out beautifully.

Whether you’re a seasoned knitter or just starting out, the Pogonip hat is an enjoyable and rewarding project that will keep you warm while showcasing your knitting skills. Download this free knitting pattern today to get started on your new favorite winter accessory!
