Dayton Cabled Baby Aviator Hat by Julie Taylor
What is Being Made
The Dayton Cabled Baby Aviator Hat is a knitted baby hat featuring a classic aviator design with cable detailing. This downloadable knitting pattern from designer Julie Taylor offers a charming, structured hat suitable for infants and young children, with a fitted crown and characteristic aviator-style brim construction.
Knitting Techniques
This pattern accommodates multiple knitting approaches, allowing crafters to choose their preferred method:
- Knitting in the round – using circular needles for seamless construction
- Knitting flat – using two needles with seaming required for finishing
The pattern includes flexibility for fit adjustments. Knitters who prefer a more relaxed fit around the brim can work the garter stitch section using 4mm needles throughout, rather than switching needle sizes.
Stitches Used
The hat incorporates cable stitches as the primary decorative element, creating the textured, twisted pattern characteristic of cabled knitwear. Garter stitch is used for the brim section, providing a classic, reversible texture that frames the face.
Materials Required
This pattern uses DK (double knit) weight yarn, also known as light worsted in US terminology. Yardage requirements vary by size: approximately 95–170 metres (104–186 yards) depending on the finished hat size, equating to 40–73 grams of yarn.
Knitting needles: 3.25mm (US size 3) needles are required. Crafters may also use 4mm needles for the brim section if a relaxed fit is desired.
The designer used premium DK-weight yarns including Wendy Merino DK and Sublime Baby Cashmere Merino Silk DK for the original samples, though any suitable DK yarn may be substituted.
Difficulty Level
This pattern is rated as intermediate, suitable for knitters with foundational skills who are comfortable working cables and managing either circular or flat knitting construction.
