Crafted for those who appreciate both style and comfort, this enchanting design promises warmth without sacrificing grace. Picture yourself strolling through a crisp autumn evening or enjoying a leisurely spring outing, all while exuding effortless charm. Whether you’re an experienced knitter seeking a captivating project or a newcomer eager to dive into the world of knitting, Dreamscape invites you to create something truly magical.

Worked from the bottom up, this versatile hat pattern allows you to craft a perfectly fitting hat seamlessly in the round. The construction involves starting with the brim, progressing to the body, and culminating with shaping the crown. As you approach the final stages of the crown, you’ll need to switch from using 16” / 40 cm circular needles to either the magic loop method or double-pointed needles, depending on your preference for tackling smaller circumferences.

A notable feature of this hat pattern is its versatility in accommodating different sizes. For the pattern motif and crown, there are both written directions and charts available. You’ll be able to work independently with your preferred directions once the brim is done.
