Featuring columns of twisted stitches and short rows for an asymmetrical brim, Elevation is a design that invites you to play with numbers. Would you like your sequence to scale up to the left or up to the right? Would you like your brim steeper or less so? Either way, there are options that allow you to customise your Hat whilst also knitting through a sequence that provides space for numbers that wouldn’t normally meet.

The pattern is worked from the bottom up and in the round. The instructions are provided in a written format and 5 sizes are included.
