The ARMOR hat is the newest addition to my ARMOR family. The beautiful armor stitch pattern is quick and fun to knit and the beanie is also suitable for bigger hair. It’s a perfect match with the wonderful new yarn SAYAMA from Pascuali

The ARMOR hat is worked in the round seamlessly from the bottom up. First you work the brim in 2x1 rib. Then you increase to the Armor stitch pattern for the body before you decrease in pattern for the crown.

For any questions we welcome you in the knitting support in the ANKESTRiCK group
