Product Details
This pattern is based on a very plain man’s bicycle cap from 1886, with many changes to transform it into something I absolutely love. It can actually be made to any size, using any weight yarn, but for best results use a single ply Aran weight. The crown is worked in a spiral of hdc stitches, then the brim is worked downward, including a Star Stitch row and post stitch ribbing for textural interest.
This is the first in a series of Sherlock Holmes inspired designs - its inspiration being Arthur Conan Doyle’s short story***, The Adventure of the Solitary Cyclist***
