WORKING PATTERN
HAT
The hat begins with a series of welts,
which are decoratively gathered with
a tab.
Cast on 96 sts onto larger needles
and join to work in the round, being
careful not to twist sts.
Welt Pattern:
Purl 5 rounds.
Knit 3 rounds.
These 8 rounds form welt pattern.
Work the 8 rounds of the Welt Pattern
twice.
Purl 5 rounds.

Knit one round.

Begin working from Hat chart (See

page 52) at round 1, repeating the 24

sts of the pattern four times around

the hat.

Note: Where a centred double

decrease occurs in stitch 1, slip the

last st of the previous round together

with the first st of the current round,

removing marker and placing it to the

right of these sts. K1, pass slipped sts

over.

Work until round 47. After all rounds

have been worked, 8 sts remain.

Break yarn, pull the tail through the

remaining working sts and pull tight to

bind off.

MAKING UP

flair to the hat’s brim. Turn the hat

inside out. Holding hat so that the

brim (cast on edge) is facing up, with

smaller needles pick up and purl 7 sts

into the round between the last welt

and round 1 of the chart. Centre these

sts with any one of the leaves on the

hat.
