Parts of the North Island of New Zealand have been hit extremely hard in separate weather events this year, the most recent of which is Cyclone Gabrielle.

In purchasing THIS pattern during this period, please know that you are contributing to one of the most basic needs of human beings like yourself, many of whom have also lost either loved ones (including much loved pets/livestock) &/or, many of whom have lost everything else, except what they escaped with at the time, in many case, only the clothes they eventually managed to stand up in. And you are so much appreciated for this!

ABOUT THE DESIGN
Not to be confused with my Pod Hat design, Bod is more like it’s fraternal twin. Slightly different, though possibly looking the same until you see them together.

Both hats were designed as casual, gender neutral accessories. Both patterns include 5 sizes.

There is a very simple chart to follow for the ‘main’ pattern. Written instructions are included for the brim and the crown shaping. I am particularly pleased with the way the crown shaping flows from the easy, textured stitch pattern - only knits & purls!

Pick a lovely DK yarn with good stitch definition & you’ll be sure to enjoy knitting AND wearing this design.
