Hat for Dan
Hat for Dan is a beginner friendly DK weight hat design and is sized for everyone on your gift knit list, baby through adult large.
This design is a fundraising effort for the Morton Rutledge Fire Company in honor of my brother in law, Daniel Clement, who passed away in September.
This hat was designed using Queen City Yarn Biddleville DK at a gauge of 22 stitches and 28 rows to 4 inches (10 cm) on larger needles in the round. I used Home Team Grey and knit an Adult Medium in the slouchy length for the sample.
Size: Baby (Toddler, Child/Adult Small, Adult Medium, Adult Large)
Finished Measurements
Circumference: 15 (16, 18, 20 , 22) inches, unstretched.
Length: 6 (7.5, 8.5, 9.5, 10.5) inches from brim to top.
Slouchy version 8 (9.5, 10.5, 11.5, 12.5) inches from brim to top.
I’ve knit many hats for my brothers over the years. Daniel wore his all the time and was so proud to tell people, “My sister made it!” He requested a new one the day before he passed away. Daniel was a hero in many rights, serving his community in the United States Air Force, as an EMT, Police Officer, and most recently as Captain of the Morton Rutledge Fire Company. One of the many tasks he thoroughly enjoyed was organizing the fundraising efforts for his fire company. I have written this design, Hat for Dan, in his memory and will be donating proceeds from pattern sales to his fire company in an effort to continue to show support in his honor.
