"This easy-to-work stitch pattern creates an evocative basketweave stitch that looks truly woven. Created with only knits, purls, and slip stitches, the finished fabric is richly textured with a warm, squishy hand. Slipped stitch “floats” are carried along the RS of the fabric to create the repeating pattern of horizontal lines that interweave with the vertical ribbing. Use a relaxed tension when carrying the floats for a finished fabric that is lively and elastic to the touch. Doubling the ribbed brim brings a professional-feeling finish to the piece and helps to balance the thickly textured fabric on the hat body. Starting with a provisional cast on, the 1x1 ribbed brim is worked to twice the depth of the finished brim, then folded in half and joined into a double-layer by working the provisionally cast on stitches together with the final round of the brim. The crown decreasing is camouflaged into the woven stitch pattern to create a seamless, decorative finish at the top of the hat. Instructions for both Adult and Child sizing are included in the pattern." — designer, Jared Flood Designer: Jared Flood Collection: Winter Edit View the Winter Edit Lookbook Share on social: #LoomedHat
