Building Blocks: Hats
$8.00
This #KWBuildingBlocks pattern is one of the only hat patterns you’ll ever need! Laid out a little differently than our other Kelbourne Woolens designs, this pattern is a little more word-heavy and breaks down some of the intermediate-level techniques in order to make the knitting easy and enjoyable. The hope is that you not only learn something along the way, you end up with a fabulous hat – or hats – as well!
Three versions are designed in order of difficulty:
Hat A is a simple stockinette stitch hat with a rolled brim.
Hat B is a classic stockinette stitch hat with a K2, P2 ribbed brim.
Hat C features K2, P2 Ribbing throughout.
Available as a PDF download.
