Sweet Clematis Hat
Immerse yourself in a creative daydream with the *Sweet Clematis Hat*, a gorgeous knitting pattern inspired by delicate flowers peeking through a beautifully wrought iron fence, set against a breathtaking deep sky backdrop. This hat seamlessly combines casual comfort with elegant colourwork, making it not only a cozy accessory but also a stunning conversation starter. Available in two sizes—Youth and Adult—this versatile hat is perfect for knitters of all skill levels.
Sizes: Youth (Adult) Finished Measurements: Circumference 18.5 (21)" / 47 (52) cm. For the best fit, approximately 1 to 1.5” / 2.5 to 4 cm of negative ease is recommended, ensuring your Sweet Clematis Hat hugs your head comfortably while maintaining a stylish silhouette.
Yarn: This project requires DK weight yarn, with specifics of MC (Main Color) being 124 (150) yds / 114 (137) m and CC (Contrast Color) 75 (90) yds / 68 (85) m; additionally, you’ll need 50 yds / 46 m for a delightful pom pom. Our sample showcases the lovely *Bayfield DK* by Georgian Bay Fibers, featuring 100% Untreated Bluefaced Leicester with 252 yds / 230 m per skein. The chosen colors for the sample include MC Grondine Swell and CC Carrington Winter Sky. (Note that Bayfield DK has a tendency to knit up more like a sport weight, adding to its softness and warmth.)
Needle Size: For the Youth size, use US 4 / 3.5mm 16" circular needles along with US 6 / 4mm 16" circular needles and DPNs for finishing. For the Adult size, opt for US 2.5 / 3mm 16" circular needles. This combination of tools will help you achieve the perfect stitch tension for this eye-catching design.
