Simple Summer Hat
Using a sport weight (think 6 stitches to the inch) and sizes 1 or 2 circular and double point needles we will make a linen stitch summer hat. The 2.5” brim will curl up a bit on it’s own. Or you run yarn through the “hem” to create a tighter curl.
This hat will *fit:
Children: 20-21” around and 7” deep . Linen Stitch with #1 needles: 12 rounds/8 stitches = 1 inch
Adults: 22-23” around and 8” deep . Linen Stitch with #2 needles: 15 rounds/7 stitches = 1 inch
*fit: the hat will stretch with wear, it is cotton. If it gets too stretched out just throw it in the wash and it
will shrink back up. The dryer will shrink it more in depth than circumference.
