The hat that started it all for me. Thank God for hipsters, and fishermen. This is the updated knitting pattern for my Fisherman’s Cap that everybody seems to love on youtube. I go more in depth about sizing and added a short FAQ of all the things that people love to ask me about with this pattern. It’s simple enough for a more advanced beginner, but not too simple that it’s boring. I love ribbing because you can zone out a little bit, but it’s more exciting than just knitting plain.

A version of this pattern is up on my youtube, but this is slightly different with better math skills and explanations haha.

This is a knitting PATTERN, not a finished hat. You will receive a PDF to follow.
