Broken Seed Stitch Hat
Working with only one color at a time, and using just knit and purl stitches, this pattern creates the effect of a mesh overlay of the main color over the contrast color. It looks intricate, but is easy enough for a beginner.
Skills: Knit, purl, ssk, k2tog. This hat is worked in the round.
Yarn selection: Fingering/ sock yarn, about 130 yards main color and 60-70 yards contrast color. You will use the MC for most of the ribbing; it will be the color that looks like the overlaid mesh; and it will form a sort of star shape at the crown because the crown shaping decreases will be worked in MC. The CC will make a splash of color at the cast-on edge and be the background color for the body of the hat. This pattern works well with two solid colors or with one solid and one variegated. It looks best when there is a lot of contrast between the main color and the contrast color.
Size: Finished circumference of approximately 18.5”/ 47 and height of 7.5”/ 19 cm will fit older child through adult.
Pattern support: Designer email is included in the pattern in case you run into questions. And I would love to see pictures of your finished hat!
