Karu Hat

The perfect pattern for learning to knit in the round or great for experienced knitters to whizz up a hat in a weekend. The Kura Hat is great for men and women. I was asked by knitters that visit my Skipton Studio for a dk version of the Caspian Hat (this original hat is knitted in aran, so if you have come to this page loving the look of the hat but wishing it was aran weight then click on the link above and have your wish granted!) However I like to make my designs different from each other, even if it’s a simple small change so while the Caspian Hat is knitted flat and then sewn together, the Kura Hat is knitted in the round on short circular needles and then you change to double pointed needles at the crown. If you are new to circulars this can seem tricky but it is SO MUCH easier and more fun than you might first think. So just pop that hat on your head as soon as you finish knitting!
