Rosalind Hat
Introducing the Rosalind Slouch Hat, a chic and cozy beanie that combines style and comfort with a touch of elegance. This lovely slouch hat features delicate cable detailing and is crafted from luxurious cashmere (or any worsted weight yarn of your choice), making it the perfect accessory for any fashionable outfit!
The Rosalind Slouch Hat boasts a flattering slouchy beanie style that provides a loose and relaxed fit, ideal for both women and teens who want to elevate their winter wardrobe. This versatile pattern is not only fashionable but also practical, offering an easy knit experience that strikes the perfect balance between plain stockinette sections and a hint of intricate patterning for visual interest.
Size: This pattern is designed to fit an average woman with a circumference of 18-23 inches and a length of 10 inches, ensuring a comfortable fit for most.
Yarn Requirements: You will need approximately 175 yards of worsted weight yarn to create this stylish hat. The pattern is shown here using 6 strands of ColorMart 2/28 thickness 100% cashmere. As an alternative, you can use Lux Adorna Sport weight yarn (230 yards/50g; 100% cashmere) held double for a similar luxurious feel.
Additional Materials: Don’t forget to gather your tools! You will need 1 stitch marker and a cable needle if desired.
Needles: This pattern calls for US 5 (3.75mm) and US 6 (4mm) 16” circular needles, as well as US 6 (4mm) double pointed needles. Ensure you have the right size to achieve the desired gauge, and you might need one size smaller for best results.
Gauge: To ensure a perfect fit, aim for a gauge of 18 stitches = 4 inches in stockinette on your larger needles.
