Dalloway (dk version)
Pattern has been updated to include instructions for both dk and worsted weight yarns. You will receive instructions for both when you purchase the pattern.
Dalloway is a fun and elegant cloche style hat. Perfect for rainy mornings and flower shopping, Dalloway’s tucked brim juts out ever so slightly to frame the face before leading into a tighter cable pattern.
Pattern is recommended for advanced beginner knitters and beyond. The cable pattern is simple and a great one to try cabling without a cable needle.

(Dk model was knit using Madelinetosh Tosh Merino dk in “Calligraphy”).
