Winter Twist Slouchy Hat

This hat is knit on slightly oversized needles to give a looser fabric with a relaxed drape and forms part of the Winter Twist Collection of accessories, which also includes a beanie hat, gloves and boot cuffs. The Winter Twist Collection is a series of accessories that can be worn alone or together and is perfect for wrapping up against autumn and winter chills.

All the patterns incorparate the same design elements of a twisted cable and button details.

The brim of the hat is knitted flat then a few stitches are cast off at each end to form the button placket before joining in the round to work the main body and crown.

This pattern is suitable for any DK weight yarn that knits to the correct tension. Solid colours are recommended to best show off the cable pattern.
