Wired Up Hat

The Wired Up Hat is inspired by electrical wiring. This hat gives the illusion of strands of yarn woven in front and behind columns of stitches, just like wires running between studs in a wall. This effect is easy to work and fun to wear!

This close-fitting hat uses a straightforward all-over stitch pattern based on ribbing with some strands lying on top of the fabric. These strands help highlight details in a multicoloured yarn or add interesting texture in a solid colour. It features a crown knit in pattern as well as a cuff that blends into the pattern smoothly.

This pattern requires the knitter to be able to knit in the round (both on double-pointed needles and circular needles) and clearly explains all techniques required. Within the pattern you will find links to useful video tutorials as well, so the pattern is easily accessible to an advanced beginner knitter. Corresponding written instructions are provided for the chart.
