This is a lovely, soft, lace hat knit from handspun Angora. The pattern offers two styles.
Slouchy style hat is 18” in circumference and 10” from brim to top
Close fitting style hat is 18” in circumference and 7” from brim to top
I used handspun Angora, but you will get really nice results from a sport weight commercial yarn as well. I suggest Knitted Wit or Hazel Knits - 150-175 yards.
1 US 8/5 mm circular needle; 29”
Tapestry needle; stitch marker
Pattern is charted with minimal written instructions
Gauge: 19 stitches = 4” in st. st. (gauge can be somewhat flexible – it’s a hat)
