A sideways-knit, reversible brioche hat, featuring my new technique: brioche short rows! The stitch columns make concentric rings around the hat all the way up to the crown, and the short rows are invisible and so easy to do. Marianated Yarns handdyed yarn is so perfect for this hat; the gorgeous colour pooling runs perpendicular to the brioche columns and you can see ghosts of the pooling on the solid colour side. It is easy to custom size the brim of this hat, since the repeats are small; it is designed to be slouchy on an adult-sized head, but if you want it more snug, or are knitting for a tiny human, reduce the number of stitches and it will be shorter.
