The Classic Bucket Hat is equal parts cozy and fashionable. I’m excited to release this new bucket hat pattern that is suitable any levels of knitting experience! It’s also a quick knit which is fun too :) There is one part of the pattern where you will need to fold the brim to create a bit of a sturdier structure at the base of the hat. That is the trickiest part of the pattern but I’ve included a good youtube video on how to do this in the round. The rest is straight knit and purl stitches in a fluffy boucle yarn.
