Simple Hat

Welcome to your new favorite beginner project: this stylish and versatile hat pattern! Perfect for those venturing into the world of circular knitting, this classic design was originally published in my Indonesian language knitting book. After some thoughtful tinkering, I’m excited to offer you two length options: a fitted look and a slightly slouchy vibe. While I personally favor the longer variant, I understand that some knitters prefer a more snug fit, so this pattern accommodates both preferences. Additionally, I have translated this pattern into English for wider accessibility.

This easy-to-follow hat pattern utilizes basic knitting techniques, including essential decreases. Designed as a written pattern, it comes in one size but features two height options for maximum comfort and style: a fitted option for a neat finish and a slouchier version for those relaxed moments. The gauge for this pattern is 22 stitches and 28 rows, equating to 10 cm in a ribbing stitch of K2, P2, making it approachable for beginners.

For your project, you will need DK weight yarn in one solid color, along with knitting needles in a suitable size to achieve the best results. Whether you're gifting this hat to a friend or adding it to your own wardrobe, it's an enjoyable project you'll cherish.

Kindly note that you are not permitted to distribute or sell electronic or paper copies of this pattern; however, you are welcome to sell any finished products you create using this design. Just please give a shout-out to me in your listings! :)

Thank you for choosing this pattern, and I genuinely hope you enjoy every stitch of your knitting journey! Happy knitting!
