The Henrik Hat is named after beloved Norwegian playwright, Henrik Ibsen, and is an ode to my time traveling through Norway. Featuring Fisherman’s Rib with no shaping, this is a fantastic project for the adventurous beginner looking to learn a new stitch pattern. The Henrik Hat is worked flat in turned rows and then seamed into a tube and magically transformed into a hat! While stitch counts and measurements are provided, this pattern is easily modified to fit anyone and create your perfect look!
