What’s better than a free hat pattern? 12 free hat patterns, of course! The Year of Hats celebrates our Germantown yarn with 12 free knitting patterns for fun hats using our favorite knitting techniques. The December Hat by Irina Anikeeva is covered in big, intertwining cables. This cozy hat is worked in the round from the bottom up. A tubular cast on is followed by 2 x 2 ribbing that transitions seamlessly into thick cable panels for the body. The crown of the hat uses integrated decreases in the cables to create a stunning effect. A pom pom and cute custom KW tag completes.
