Single Clematis Vine Hat
Imagine a daydream filled with delicate flowers gently peeking through a wrought iron fence, set against a stunning deep sky backdrop. This whimsical vision serves as the inspiration for the captivating Single Clematis Hat, a delightful project that marries casual comfort with elegant colorwork. This hat is not just a cozy accessory; it’s destined to become a conversation piece, making it a perfect addition to your wardrobe.
Available in a variety of sizes, the Single Clematis Hat can be created for children as well as adults. The finished measurements are as follows: Circumference 17" (Child), 18.5" (Adult Small), and 21" (Adult) or 43 cm (Child), 47 cm (Adult Small), and 52 cm (Adult). For an ideal fit, approximately 1 to 1.5 inches (2.5 to 4 cm) of negative ease is recommended, ensuring that the hat is comfortable yet snug.
This charming hat is designed using DK or sport weight yarn. You will need approximately 110 yards (100 m), 130 yards (119 m), or 150 yards (137 m) of the main color (MC) and 35 yards (32 m), 40 yards (37 m), or 50 yards (46 m) of the contrasting color (CC) for respective sizes. Additionally, prepare about 50 yards (46 m) for a fluffy pom pom to add that perfect finishing touch. The sample is crafted in Bayfield DK by Georgian Bay Fibers, which comprises 100% Untreated Bluefaced Leicester (with 252 yds / 230 m per skein), in the MC shade of Carrington Winter Sky and CC shade of Grondine Swell. (Please note, Bayfield DK knits up with a texture comparable to sport weight yarn.)
