Product Description
My husband Dave really likes to wear a Santa hat around Christmas time. He has, to my shame, a polyester fun-fur Santa hat. I decided that thing wasn’t going to be around for even one more Christmas! This hat is constructed in a slightly different manner to most. First, you will make the cabled headband, then pick up stitches for the remainder of the hat.
Needles: Set of size 5 US (3.75mm) double pointed needles or 16” circular needle (or size to obtain gauge), plus your preferred method to knit small circumferences in the round*.*
Finished Size: 21-24” unstretched, up to 25” stretched (circumference), 17” length not including pompom (easily adjustable).
Yarn: Lorna’s Laces Shepherd Worsted, 100% Superwash Merino, 225 yards/114g (shown in Natural). Sample required about 135 yards (including pompom).
Gauge: 20 stitches/24 rows in 4” blocked stockinette.
