Winter Wanderer Hat

If you’re looking for a versatile knitting pattern that looks incredible on both sides, you’ve found it! This unique stitch pattern is perfect for knitters at any skill level and can be crafted using either sport or worsted weight yarn in 3 different sizes, making it suitable for a variety of projects.

Featuring a stunning waffle pattern that is charming on the “right side” and equally appealing on the “wrong side” (as shown in the last photo), this design allows you to create a truly reversible piece. Remember to weave in those ends carefully for a seamless finish!

For this project, we recommend using Moeke Yarns Heritage in sport weight, which boasts 383 yards (350 meters) per 100g skein. For the sample size, approximately 170 yards were used. This lovely yarn will enhance the texture of your finished item and provide both warmth and style.

You will need a set of US 3 (3.25mm) and US 4 (3.5mm) 16” circular needles to knit this pattern. Additionally, one set of US 4 (3.5mm) double-pointed needles (dpns) or the needle size needed to obtain gauge is also required.

Essential notions for this project include a stitch marker and a blunt needle for weaving in ends, ensuring your finished piece is both polished and professional.

Make sure to check your gauge, which is 24 stitches and 40 rows = 4” in the waffle pattern, to guarantee a perfect fit. Whether you’re crafting a cozy accessory or a thoughtful gift, this pattern is sure to delight!

Happy knitting!
