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 July Hat is a sweet little break from summertime schedule madness. An easy-to-memorize stitch pattern produces a cute and functional end result, and your mid-December head will be thanking your mid-July hands for thinking ahead to cooler temps.
The July Hat is worked in the round from the bottom up. After working the ribbed brim, increases are worked for the body. The body is worked in a large graphic triangle pattern, and integrated decreases shape the crown. Both charted and written instructions are provided. A cute custom KW tag completes the look.
