7up is a versatile little hat that has some fun with diagonals, knit in soft worsted wt yarn (I used the cashmere, but primo would work just fine!). It can be worn slouchy and back on the head like a beret, or folded up and straight up like a beanie.

I loved the simplicity of the diagonals playing off of each other, and the way the first direction created a “brim” while the second makes more of a hat “body”.

This one is a very easy knit, and fun to wear :)

Color: Early Light, sample knit in the cashmere.

Note: in the photos, my sample was knit in the larger size and Melissa has a small head, so, fyi - the hat is a little extra slouchy on her.
