Rose Jam Hat
Introducing the Rose Jam Hat, a cozy and stylish slouchy knitted hat designed with inspiration from the delicate texture of rose petals. This worsted-weight hat features an all-over pattern where cabled petals reminiscent of the heart-shaped blooms of classic old-fashioned roses gracefully emerge from the crown and cascade down to a snug ribbed brim, making it a perfect accessory for both warmth and style.
The Rose Jam Hat is not only a beautiful piece but also a rewarding knitting project that requires essential skills such as knitting in the round, basic decreases, and 2-stitch cables. For those who prefer to work without the hassle of a cable needle, I've included my favorite method in the pattern, ensuring a smooth knitting experience.
Materials: You will need 128 (160) yards / 118 (147) metres of worsted-weight yarn to complete this project. I personally used 1 skein of Malabrigo Rios, a luxurious 100% merino wool yarn offering 210 yards / 192 metres per 100g skein in the vibrant shade of ‘Ravelry Red’. This yarn not only creates warmth but also lends a beautiful drape and texture to your finished hat.
Sizing: The Rose Jam Hat comes in two sizes: S (L) designed to fit adult head circumferences of 19-21” (22-24”). The finished hat dimensions are 18” (20”) in circumference and 8” (9”) in length, ensuring a comfortable fit. Detailed suggestions for resizing are also included, allowing you to customize it based on personal preference or gift-giving needs.
This pattern provides both charted and written instructions, making it accessible for knitters of various levels. Whether you’re an experienced knitter or just starting, you’ll find this pattern straightforward and enjoyable. Moreover, please note that the Rose Jam Hat pattern is exclusively for personal use, so you can create beautiful, handmade gifts for friends or family without hesitation.
