Description
The Crocus Hat is worked in the round from the bottom up. It begins with a knit 1, purl 1 ribbing at the brim, and then a fun dandelion pattern is worked around the body of the hat. Decreases are integrated into the stitch pattern to shape the crown.
The cashmere and mohair are held together throughout. The hat is designed to have a folded brim; you may wish to keep the brim unfolded for a slouchier look.

Was easy to follow pattern once I watched numerous U-Tubes on how make a dandelion stitch . This is not a pattern for a beginner. Would have been easier to follow if the hat instructions were on the Left hand side of the page leading into the pattern instructions; I had to reread several times to make sure I had instructions correct. In the past I’ve had patterns where the decrease instruction part was a continuation of number not back to ,1, . I have only been knitting for a couple of years and this was a new challenge but figured it out
I really enjoyed this pattern.
A new pattern for me to knit and enjoyed doing it. Love how it looks!
Lovely
Can’t wait to make it!
