Royal Slouch

Discover the cozy comfort of our slouchy Cable Stitch Hat pattern, inspired by the popular Royal Cowl design! This delightful hat features a beautiful cable stitch pattern that not only adds texture but also provides warmth for those chilly days. Whether you prefer a relaxed slouch or a classic toque with a rolled brim, this versatile pattern is sure to brighten your winter wardrobe. Crafted in the round from the bottom up, this hat allows for smooth, seamless knitting. Designed specifically for one skein of Indigo Moon Worsted Merino, the pattern is also flexible enough to accommodate 183 m (or 200 yd) of any worsted weight yarn you love. Choose a vibrant color to really make a statement and bring a smile to your face during the cold months! In addition to the cheerful design, this pattern includes a comprehensive stitch guide, a list of abbreviations, and detailed instructions for the stitch pattern, which are presented both in written and charted formats for your convenience. The hat fits an approximate head circumference of 53 - 61 cm, with the finished circumference of the body measuring 46 cm at its widest point, and a snug brim circumference of 38 cm. The overall length of the hat (without a pom-pom) is 23 cm, making it the perfect accessory for any winter outfit. Skills required for this project include knitting in the round, increasing, decreasing, cabling with a cable needle, and making a pom-pom (optional but adds a fun flair!). The stitches used in this pattern are: knit (k), purl (p), C4F (cable 4 front), C4B (cable 4 back), M1L (make 1 left), and k2tog (knit two together). Whether you're an experienced knitter or just starting out, this Cable Stitch Hat pattern is a satisfying project that you'll love creating.
