Sugar Cube Hat
2020 has been a strange old year: with a pandemic shutting all of us up in our homes, one activity I truly missed was coffee-shop knitting. To celebrate this beloved pastime, I've created the Sugar Cube Knits set, inspired by the joy of knitting in cozy cafes. The Sugar Cube Hat stands out with its simple yet captivating textured stitch pattern, composed of knits and purls, resembling neat stacks of sugar cubes.
Having a versatile collection of hats is essential for all seasons, and the Sugar Cube Hat is perfect for those cooler days that haven't quite turned into the depths of winter. This stylish hat is designed to be long enough to keep your ears warm while being low-profile enough to fit comfortably under a hoodie or jacket. It swiftly became my go-to accessory for the school run, quick errands, or casual outings. Plus, its compact size means it’s an excellent emergency hat that can easily fit into your bag, ensuring your head stays warm wherever you go!
This adorable hat is worked in the round from the bottom up, beginning with a deep ribbed cuff (feel free to double the depth if you prefer extra coziness for your ears!). Following the cuff, the main body of the Sugar Cube Hat is crafted before finishing with stylish crown decreases for a polished look. With its charming design and practical features, this hat is sure to become a favorite staple in your winter wardrobe. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced knitter, this pattern allows you to enjoy the soothing rhythm of knitting while creating a functional piece that you'll love to wear time and time again.
