Rasta Love
Introducing our one skein chunky knit hat pattern, perfect for knitters who adore creating textured accessories! This quick and easy project is an ideal Christmas gift for friends and family, and it’s designed to be worked up quickly so you can craft several in no time. For added flair, pom-pom instructions are included, allowing you to customize your hat according to your style. Our pattern accommodates both beginners and experienced knitters, featuring detailed instructions for using a cable needle, as well as a method for those who prefer to knit without one.
Finished Measurements: The hat boasts an impressive circumference of 52 cm (20.5”) when unstretched and a cozy height of 23 cm (9”) post-blocking, making it a snug fit for a variety of head sizes.
Gauge: To achieve the perfect fit, ensure your gauge is 10 stitches and 17 rounds = 4” (10cm) over Chart A (blocked). Getting your gauge right is essential for the best finished product!
Needles Required: For this project, you will need US 11 (8mm) and US 15 (10mm) 16” (40cm) long circular needles, along with US 15 (10mm) double-pointed needles (OR SIZES TO OBTAIN GAUGE). Choose your favorite pair of needles to make the process enjoyable!
Yarn: We recommend using Malabrigo Rasta, an exquisite pure merino wool yarn that provides both warmth and softness. You will need just one skein, which contains 82m (90yds)/150g, in the rich and beautiful colorway of 52 (Paris Night). Its chunky texture makes it the perfect choice for a stylish hat!
Notions: Don’t forget to gather your knitting supplies! You will need a tapestry needle for weaving in ends, a stitch marker to keep track of your rounds, and a cable needle if you choose to work with cables and want to follow that method.
Instructions: This pattern comes with comprehensive written instructions, a helpful chart, and video tutorials to guide you every step of the way. Whether you're a seasoned knitter or just starting out, our resources ensure that you can confidently create this stunning hat.
