Epiphyte

Epiphyte is a matching hat and cowl set that uses an easy 3-stitch cable pattern to create a cute fabric. The cowl is knitted in the round, with the pattern all around and I-cord on the edges. The pattern for the hat is slightly adapted, covering only parts of the hat. Quick decreases are used to shape the crown. The double brim gives that extra warmth for colder days. Sizes Cowl: Circumference 21” {53.5cm}. Hat: Sizes 1 (2, 3). To fit head circumference 20.5 (21.5, 22.5)” {52 (54.5, 57)cm}. The hat pattern is written with a 1” {2.5cm} negative ease.
