Second Hand Rose Cap

Create a stylish and cozy hat with a wide ribbed brim and eye-catching stripes that extend to the tippy top. This easy and quick knitting project is perfect for both beginners and seasoned knitters alike. The optional rose embellishment offers a charming touch and can be effortlessly attached after you finish the hat. As you work the stripes, you’ll carry the unused color along the inside of the hat, which means there will be no pesky ends to weave in afterward!

For this delightful project, we're using Universal Yarns Renew Wool, an excellent all-around wool blend that utilizes 35% repurposed and recycled wool. This sustainable yarn not only feels great but also helps in reducing waste—what’s not to love?

To get started on your new favorite accessory, gather your supplies: you'll need size US 6 knitting needles for a 16" circular, along with a set of four double-pointed needles. If you’d like to replicate the vibrant colors showcased in the photograph, opt for one skein each of color 104 and color 105. This unisex hat can easily be worn by a man if you choose to skip the decorative rose, making it a versatile addition to anyone's wardrobe.

But that's not all! Enhance your knitting experience with our matching fingerless glove pattern, the Second Hand Rose Gauntlets. Be sure to check it out for a complete winter ensemble that will keep you warm and stylish!
