DETAILS
I noticed that knitting single rows of stripes creates what looks like subtle chevron, and KNEW that it needed to be incorporated into a design! I am constantly trying to find ways to use scraps of yarn or less-than-whole skeins leftover from knitting a whole hat with one color. This all led to what is now the Rachel Hat
The Rachel Hat is a beginner friendly striped hat knit with three colors. It’s perfect for everyday wear, market prep, and gift knitting. It is knit seamlessly with a chevron-esque pattern and works up quickly.
This pattern will make the perfect addition to your market line up and it’s the perfect last minute gift knit. It comes in child and adult sizes so no one is left out!
SIZES
Make this hat in both adult and child sizes
Adult: 20-22″ head
Child: 16-18″ head
DIFFICULTY
Beginner: You will need to know how to cast on, knit, purl, work in the round, bind off, and add/change colors. It works up in a few hours and once you knit a few rounds of the body it’s pretty mindless!
YARN
Size 6 super bulky yarn approximately 40 yards of each color. My go to is Lion Brand Wool Ease Thick and Quick.
Testers used Lion Brand Wool Ease Thick and Quick, Lion Brand Hometown, and Peruano
OTHER MATERIALS NEEDED:
US 13 (9.00 mm) 24″ circular needles (you can have longer ones if you want to do magic loop)
Stitch Marker
Tapestry Needle
