Designed to match my Elodia Mitts and Elodia Socks, this slouchy hat is the perfect lightweight accessory for those days when there’s just a touch of cold in the air. Starting with a twist-rib brim for a snug fit, this hat knits up quickly -- you’re almost ready to start the crown decreases once you’ve finished the lace panel. The amount of slouch is easy to adjust and the stretchiness of the fabric provides a forgiving fit.

To knit this pattern, you need to know how to:

• work lace stitches using a chart or written instructions,
• work twisted stitches,
• work lifted increases, and
• work basic decreases.

Yarn requirements: Approximately 220 (260, 320) yds./201 (238, 292.5) m of fingering weight yarn
