Crocus Hat
Crocus Hat
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.

Crocus Hat
I like the pattern very much so far. I have done a couple of rows of ribbing. Looking forward to continue working on the hat and learning a new knitting stitch (dandelion stitch). Free hat pattern from Kelbourne Woolens.

I forgot to write which yarn or extras I bought at Kelbourne. I don’t have plans to make the hat at this time, but I LOVED the yarn crawl!
