Product Details
The Bempton Hat was such a joy to knit! I combined one strand of aran weight yarn with one strand of Cumulus, and I loved the way these fibres worked together – creating a beautifully soft, yet structured fabric. If you prefer a different look, you can also knit the hat using just aran weight yarn for a softer drape compared to the firmer feel of merino and fluffy yarn held together.
This design came about as a request from a friend, they wanted a Bempton Hat to go with the Bempton Mittens – making a perfect winter set for walking the Dales. The stitch pattern is one of my absolute favourites, one I’ve used on several designs and will keep returning to because it’s such a joy to knit. I hope you love it as much as I do!
CONSTRUCTION
Knitted flat in one piece from the bottom up with one seam.
