Tallorcen

Introducing our beautifully designed close-fitting hat, featuring a stunning cabled band inspired by intricate Celtic knotwork. This unique design consists of a seemingly continuous line made up of a series of interlinked loops, bringing a touch of artistry to your knitting collection.

The construction of this hat begins with the cabled band, which is worked flat before being expertly grafted together. Once the band is completed, the crown stitches are then picked up around the edge of the brim and worked in the round, making this a rewarding project for knitters who enjoy both flat and circular techniques.

It's important to note that achieving the correct row gauge while working the cabled band is crucial to maintain the finished measurements of the hat. When you transition to working the crown, however, focusing on matching the stitch gauge becomes paramount. If you find it challenging to match both row and stitch gauge with the same needles, consider using different needle sizes for the band and the crown, ensuring the best fit possible.

This cabled band pattern is provided in two convenient formats: as a detailed chart and as row-by-row written instructions, accommodating different preferences and skill levels. Whether you are an experienced knitter or a beginner looking to take on an exciting new challenge, this hat pattern is perfect for you!
