Due to changes to EU legislation with regard to Value Added Tax liability from 1st January 2015 I have decided to temporarily suspend pattern sales until it becomes clear what the best option for me will be. I will also be using this opportunity to develop some new patterns, revise layouts, make any amendments and take some new photos. I haven’t set a date for reopening my Ravelry store but it’s unlikely to be before early summer 2015. If you’d like to be notified when I reopen send my a personal message and I’ll add you to a list for earburning when I reopen.

This hat is now available as an individual pattern download.

This cute cloche-shaped hat is a stylish and sophisticated shape and perfect for country walks. Featuring a buttoned garter stitch brim knit sideways, short row decorative details, and a textured crown this is a great project for an adventurous beginner or intermediate knitter.

The hat uses 100g of bulky wool or wool blend yarn (approx 120m to 100g). You will also need three buttons (approx 28mm diameter) and two stitch markers - one of these needs to be removable later so split ring or lobster clasp markers are best.

The pattern prints in colour on one page.

Knit Now Issue 19 goes on sale in supermarkets, newsagents and craft stores across the UK and worldwide from our webstore on 7th March 2013.
