Basic Soft DK Hat by Schibot Garne - a knitting pattern for a hat, in German and English.
ABOUT THIS PATTERN:
This is my basic recipe for a hat knitted with Schibot Garne Soft DK, in two colours, with a folded brim for extra warm ears and a pom-pom on top.
The pattern is written for five different sizes (from baby to adult).
This hat is seamlessly knitted in the round, is ideal for every age and sex and also goes down well as a gift!
NOTE: Pattern no longer free of charge to cover costs of the shop and working effort.
