Rising Eagle Double Knit Hat
Introducing our beautifully crafted, completely reversible knit hat pattern that features two luxurious layers for maximum comfort and warmth. Perfect for cool weather, these hats are not only stylish but also incredibly cushy, making them a delightful accessory for any wardrobe. This versatile pattern includes instructions for three sizes: small, medium, and large, using worsted weight yarn, ensuring a perfect fit for everyone from toddlers to adults.
If you're interested in a chunkier look, we also provide instructions for a chunky weight version, specifically tailored to make sizes medium and large only. The chunky version opts for a simple design without a border and features three majestic eagles, while the worsted weight version showcases four eagles soaring over an enchanting mountain landscape.
Each pattern is meticulously written with easy-to-follow color charts and helpful notes to guide you through the knitting process. Based on our testing data using worsted weight yarn, you'll find these size recommendations useful: small (18-20" circumference, ideal for ages 3 years to teen), medium (21-22" circumference for the average adult), and large (23-24" circumference for those seeking extra space).
The medium worsted weight version utilizes approximately 124 meters (135 yards) per color, based on our testing data—so don’t forget to allow for extra yarn if you’re opting to create the larger size. For the chunky version, the gauge is 14 stitches and 20 rows per 4 inches (10 cm) using a 5mm (8 US) needle in stockinette double knitting. You’ll need approximately 110 yards (100 meters) per color for medium size, ensuring your knit will be both cozy and visually stunning.
