Kinship hat features wide stripes, and a timeless textured pattern. Simple lace adds a special touch and the ribbing creates an amazing fit! I hope you love knitting one for yourself or for someone special. xo

PLEASE NOTE: YOU MUST CHECK EACH PATTERN (hat & cowl) OUT INDIVIDUALLY. This means 2 separate cart transactions. Sorry for any inconvenience. Thank you so much!

Kinship Hat:

  • written for 3 sizes with lots of fit possibilities
  • has a simple lace & rib texture. Easy to work up and the ribbing creates a terrific fit for many sizes.
  • written instructions
  • video technique link & schematic included
  • professionally tech edited and test knit (thank you all!)

Whipping up a hat is such a satisfying project. This one is no exception. You will find that the DK yarn and simple pattern repeat works up very quickly.

The Louie & Lola merino/silk/yak DK yarn used here is an absolute dream to knit and wear. If you can get some, I highly recommend treating yourself.

I love playing around with yarn and colour options like:

  • one colour of a woolly wool
