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 April Hat is probably the cutest tam you’ll see! Perfect for those chilly spring days, this hat is just blossoming with flowery goodness. It begins with a faux cable and lace brim, and then opens up into a nifty puff stitch and bobble pattern that mimics a flower bud. The integrated decreases close up the top and a pompon tops it all off. A cute custom KW tag completes the look.
