Ribbed hat
HatBeginnerAran / worsted
A hat worked entirely in 2x2 rib, in the round, with a turned-up brim. An ideal first project in the round.
This hat is worked bottom-up on a circular needle, then on double-pointed needles for the crown. You only need two stitches: knit and purl.
Ribbing is very stretchy: the hat looks small laid flat but fits the head.
Not yet checked by a knitter: if you find a mistake, please report it. contact@nico7an.fr
Good to know
- The stitch count is a multiple of 8, so the crown decreases work out in every size.
