Plant People Hat
Knit it for its own sweet sake or knit it as a wearable swatch! This hat features the same lace and cabled stitch pattern that I used for the yoke on the Plant People Sweater. You can use this hat to get the hang of that stitch pattern while making a wearable swatch project. The pattern flows elegantly out of the unusual brim. You can keep it as one layer or double it if you like a little extra over your ears. This accessory is one you’ll love to knit, wear and gift.
