Have fun mixing and matching 5 vibrant colors while creating this pretty and colorful hat! This pattern allows for creativity as you can use the provided color chart or come up with your own unique combination—both options are included in the pattern to inspire your artistic flair. :)

Size: One size designed to fit a head circumference of 54-56 cm (21-22 inches). The length from the brim to the top is approximately 26 cm (10.25 inches), making it a perfect accessory for both style and warmth.

Yarn: You will need 1 skein each of 5 colors from Jamieson’s Shetland Spindrift, which is 100% Pure Shetland Wool. Each skein provides 105 m (115 yards) per 25 grams. This beautifully crafted hat is shown in delightful colorways: Nighthawk 1020 (CC1), Gold 289 (CC2), Burnt Ochre 423 (CC3), Moss 147 (CC4), and Leprechaun 259 (CC5), giving you plenty of inspiration for your own colorful creation!

Needles: For this project, you will need a 3.5 mm (US #4) circular needle (at least 40 cm/16 inches long) as well as double-pointed needles (dpns), or an appropriate size to achieve the desired gauge. Additionally, a 3.0 mm (US #2.5) circular needle (at least 40 cm/16 inches long) or dpns, which is two sizes smaller than your gauge needles, will also be required.

Other Essentials: Don’t forget to have on hand 1 stitch marker and a tapestry needle for weaving in ends, ensuring your finished hat looks polished and professional.

Gauge: The gauge for this pattern is 28 stitches and 24 rounds in 10 cm (4 inches) in pattern worked in the round using the 3.5 mm (US #4) needle. Remember, taking the time to check your gauge will save you time in the long run! If necessary, adjust your needle size to match the correct gauge for a well-fitting hat.
