Sunset Slouch

Sunset Slouch is a beautifully intricate lace hat pattern that showcases the same captivating undulating stitch design as the beloved Golden Hour Cowl. This stunning hat is crafted using one strand of fingering-weight yarn paired with a fluffy lace-weight silk mohair, creating a delightful blend of textures. Selecting two yarns in similar color palettes allows the delicate lace pattern to shine, while choosing high-contrast color combinations adds a dramatic flair to your finished piece.

The Sunset Slouch is expertly knit in the round, allowing for seamless construction using either short or long circular needles. The journey begins with a touch of twisted ribbing, establishing a beautiful foundation for the lace. This versatile pattern is available in two sizes (small and large) and offers two style options: a fitted beanie or a cozy slouchy version. Additionally, you can further customize the hat's length within the stitch pattern to achieve your desired degree of slouch and style.

The pattern is meticulously written to cater to both metric and US terminology, making it accessible for knitters from various regions. For your convenience, clear instructions for the intricate lace pattern are provided in both written and charted formats, ensuring a smooth knitting experience regardless of your skill level.

Gauge: 20 stitches × 24 rounds = 10 cm / 4 inches in Hourglass Lace on larger needles with both yarns held together, blocked. Achieving the correct gauge is essential for ensuring your Sunset Slouch fits perfectly and maintains the intended design.
