Mirallat – knitting pattern
$10.00
Mirallat is a Hat of reflection, of symmetry, and of opposites. Worked sideways, the construction method used isn’t the more familiar sideways method that knitters may know from Woolly Wormhead designs. Instead this Hat is knit sideways using increases and decreases to create the Hat form, and a few short rows to create the slouch. This construction is highlighted perfectly by the stripe formation. Mirallat is an adventure in Hat knitting that results in a highly unusual and very wearable Hat.
Hat Description
Mirallat is a slouchy sideways knit Hat. It uses garter stitch all over, and has stripes highlighting the construction. They form an upside down U shape, with the stripes going from brim to brim, over one half of the Hat. The top curves of the U stripe pattern define the crown. The other side of the Hat has the same pattern but with the colours reversed, creating a mirrored pattern on a Hat of two halves.
