Beautiful textured hat knitting pattern for merino wool, alpaca, cashmere, acrylic or other soft, cozy, warm yarn.

This knitting pattern has two variations built into the design. You can choose to make a taller hat with a foldable cuff at the brim (see gray hat in photos) OR skip the last pattern repeat and wear it without a folded cuff (cream hat in photos). This chevron design makes a super stretchy hat that will fit adult head sizes up to 24” in circumference (and likely beyond that).
