Midvale Hat Pattern

Midvale Hat Pattern

What’s better than a free hat pattern? 12 free hat patterns, of course! The Year of Bulky Hats celebrates our Germantown Bulky yarn with 12 free knitting patterns for fun hats using our favorite knitting techniques. The August hat, Midvale, features a two stitch garter panel paired with a four stitch left leaning cable, making a classic and cosy accessory. Worked in the round from the bottom up, the ribbing beautifully transitions into the cable pattern that begins with integrated increases. Once the body of the hat is worked, integrated decreases shape the crown. The hat is finished off with a big pompom. Designer Kate Gagnon Osborn
