Ardleigh Hat Pattern

Ardleigh 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 April hat, Ardleigh, is a beautifully cabled hat with a little bit of slouch and a ton of texture. Both committed cable lovers and those new to the technique will enjoy the organic, easy to memorize, repetitive pattern. Ardleigh is also the perfect opportunity to utilize one of Kate’s favorite techniques, cabling without a cable needle!
