This pattern is my interpretation of an Inuit hunting hat, a beautiful and functional garment with a flat crown and a very wide brim with colorful design work.
This sweet pattern has the best of everything: an interesting texture, a great big brim, and a thick and warm feel, so this hat will be a favorite all winter long. It’s not form fitting and has a nice feel to the fit. Try this pattern in bright colors, pastels, or add variegated yarns. Or, try it in the colors of your favorite team, seasonal stripes or using several shades of the same color.
