This instant downloadable pattern is the perfect knit to use up some of your super chunky yarn stash and you can create this gorgeously snug hat in no time at all! There are a number of options of hat style, which you can choose to knit up a hat that is completely unique to you…

With a soft rib at the bottom of the hat, you can use this to fold up to have a closer fit, or fold down to have more of a slouchy beanie style. Add a bobble too if you’d like but it looks just as lovely without.

This pattern uses just 100g of super chunky yarn so if you’ve got some yarn leftover from other projects then this is a great pattern to have in your collection. By adding a second colour, you can knit up different styles, colours & combinations for yourself and then you’ll be whipping them up for friends and family in no time!

If you’ve not used circular needles before, they can seem quite daunting, but once you’ve got the hang of them they are so easy to use and will open up a whole new world of knitting patterns for you to get stuck into!
