Snow over Leiden
What evokes the essence of “winter” more than soft, glistening snow? And what symbolizes “snow” better than the exquisite snowflakes that gracefully adorn this charming knitted tam? This beautiful pattern invites you to knit in the round from the band all the way up to the crown, allowing you to create a stunning stranded colourwork design that starts with a flurry of individual snowflakes before seamlessly joining to form one significant large centre snowflake.
This delightful knitted tam pattern is crafted for one size, designed to fit an average adult woman's head with a circumference of approximately 22". Notably, the hat band measures 19" in circumference when knitted to the specified pattern tension, ensuring a snug yet comfortable fit. Ideal for chilly winter days, this stylish tam will keep you warm while making a chic statement.
To complete this project, you will need approximately 175 yards of your main background colour and an additional 100 yards for the contrasting snowflake colour. This means you can unleash your creativity by choosing your favourite colour combinations to make your hat uniquely yours!
You should have a solid foundation in knitting skills to tackle this project, as you will need to: work in the round (including in smaller rounds), execute stranded colourwork from charts (note that the colourwork pattern is charted only), and work various techniques such as increases and decreases (including kfb, sl1, k2tog, and psso).
