Helical – knitting pattern
$10.00
Slipped stitches whirl around the head to break up pooling and create flattering lines in this quick-knitting slouch Hat. Grab a skein of heavy DK or worsted yarn and take this opportunity to practice cabling without a needle. Available either as a single pattern or as part of the Painted Woolly Toppers collection.
Hat Description
Helical is a comfort fit Hat with a ribbed brim and a gently gathered crown. It features a reverse stocking stitch background with travelling knit stitches that work their way around the Hat to the left, creating a swirling effect that doesn’t quite reach the crown.
