Ponderosa – knitting pattern

$10.00

Perfect details, a little slouch and subtle colour combine for a quietly elegant Hat that you’ll want to wear as much as you love making it. Choose a smooth yarn with not too much variegation to show off Ponderosa’s distinctive motif.

 

Hat Description

Ponderosa is a comfort fit Hat. It has a deep ribbed brim finished with a chain stitch border. The body is worked in stocking stitch and features a subtle motif that appears like pairs of nested wide and shallow vees. The motifs repeat horizontally and are staggered vertically, creating an impression of gentle movement. The crown is worked in stocking stitch and is gently gathered.
