Twist hat (for knitting left-handed)

The instructions in this pattern are specifically designed for knitters who knit left-handed. This means that as you create your stitches, they will move from the right to left needle during the knitting process. It’s essential for left-handed knitters who follow this pattern to understand these unique instructions for optimal results.

If you are a left-handed knitter who knits in a right-handed style, where your stitches glide from the left to the right needle, we recommend purchasing the standard pattern instead for the best experience in creating your project.

Introducing the Twist hat, a cozy and stylish “paper-bag” style accessory that's sure to keep you warm while adding a touch of charm with its delightful pompoms. This beautiful pattern is worked up using chunky yarn, which not only enhances the project’s warmth but also showcases the intricate texture of the twisted stitches to perfection. The Twist hat is knitted in the round, featuring mock side seams that cleverly avoid the common issue of jogs in the stitch pattern. These stylish ‘seams’ flow seamlessly from the bottom rick-rack rib, through the eye-catching Vikkel braid, and into the elegant woven stitch pattern, creating an aesthetically pleasing finish.

The hat is completed with a distinctive cast-off technique that artfully mimics the ‘seams’, ensuring that every detail of your hat looks polished and professionally finished. The Twist hat pattern is not just a standalone project; it serves as the perfect addition to a winter wardrobe.

For those interested in coordinating accessories, we also offer patterns for a matching cowl, mittens, and fingerless mittens. This allows you to create a complete set that will keep you stylishly warm during those chilly months. Explore our range of patterns today to elevate your knitting collection!
