Jerrica is the third hat from my Jem and the Holograms inspired collection! Bright colors and fuzzy textures is what this collection is all about!

The entire collection is also available, currently at a discount, with each new pattern releasing until all 5 members of The Holograms are revealed! The price of the collection will incrementally increase with each reveal, so get it now!

Jerrica is knit with two strands of yarn held double the entire project, a fingering weight yarn and lace weight suri alpaca/silk blend, to achieve a soft halo effect. The use of two fun cable patterns adds some flair and interest to this slouchy hat. This hat does have an extra long brim that you can roll up to give extra warmth or to style like a beanie instead of a slouchy hat!

As a nod to Jerrica’s ability to transform into Jem, I worked two different cable patterns into this hat to allow you wear whichever one you want forward. <3 (To clarify: Cable Chart A is only used once on this hat. The hat was turned to move Cable Chart A to sit either in the front or the back.)
