Anderson’s snug-fitting Strata hat is knit in the round from the lower edge to the top, starting with a twisted k1, p1 ribbing. Stockinette sections alternate with panels of various knit/purl patterns; mitered earflaps are picked up along the cast-on edge and worked in garter stitch with center decreases. Knit it in Barrett Wool Co.’s Home Fingering Weight, a soft, springy wool that will make the patterns pop.
