Accretion – knitting pattern

$10.00

Worked sideways, Accretion makes effective use of short rows and stripes to create a striking arched pattern. Worked in DK weight yarn the pattern can easily be adjusted for a range of sizes by changing needle size, gauge or yarn.

Two different Hat styles & brim options are included – beanie & bonnet.

 

Hat Description

Accretion is a sideways knit Hat with a fitted crown. The brim is worked vertically downwards, and is either fitted for a beanie finished, or split and tapered for a bonnet style. It uses short row colourwork to create a nested arched motif within one panel, which is then repeated all around the Hat. It’s worked in garter stitch throughout.

2 reviews for Accretion – knitting pattern

  1. RoseKnitter

    This is a great pattern, well written as always. I love that it has both a split brim and regular beanie style. Im hoping Woolly creates more hat patterns with the split brim.

  2. JulieS

    Clear directions and easy to follow pattern. It was a quick knit (even for me). I love understanding how the split brim is created and appreciate how it can be worn many stylish ways. Thank you for yet another clever and fun knit!
