My first pattern offered in 2020. This hat pattern is being offered to all who knit for family, friends, and those in need. In other words, to those who knit with love.

In particular, I hope that it will bring comfort and joy to someone who is receiving chemo treatment.

The pattern is knit using simple stitches and features 4 pairs of large eyelets which allow you to weave in a scarf or ribbon. Only 2 rounds out of the entire hat include stitches that may be new to you. But no big deal.

I’ve included photos of earlier projects on this page just to show examples of colors and materials. Note that the 4th photo shows the hat embellished with a tie. And the 6th photo shows the hat with a bandanna woven through it.

ETA: Thanks to Koviljka for catching this typo.

After the initial K4, the repeat sequence in Instruction 7 in the band should read: k1, knit the 1st yo, purl the 2nd yo, k7, knit 1st yo, purl 2nd yo, k10.
