This hat was originally designed for a Debbie Bliss Gift Box we did at Jimmy Beans to look like a snowman for a holiday collection. The yarn and needles in the box resulted in this soft, cozy, and fluffy hat!

In recreating this design, I had the perfect shade of mohair and silk blend from Knitting for Olive that blended perfectly with Arakik Fibres Fremont Aran. The resulting hat is a bit heavier than the original, but so cozy and warm, I think this will become a winter staple.

Use either a Worsted or an Aran weight as the base for this pattern, and add in a mohair and silk laceweight for the extra fluff and halo. In this updated version I have included 2 size options instead of just one.

I hope you enjoy the Frosty Hat reimagined!
