Latvian Circle Hat
This beautiful and cozy hat is the perfect accessory to keep you warm and stylish during the colder months. With its intricate Latvian braid and colourful stranded knitting, this hat is sure to become a favourite in your wardrobe.

The pattern is suitable for intermediate knitters who are comfortable with working in the round, reading charts, and basic colourwork techniques. The instructions include detailed step-by-step guidance and helpful tips to ensure that you can create a beautiful and snug-fitting hat.

The Latvian braid adds a decorative and unique touch to the top of the hat, while the stranded knitting creates a stunning pattern throughout the body. With a range of colour options available, you can customize your hat to suit your personal style.

So, grab your favourite yarn and let’s get started on creating your own Latvian Circle Hat!

The Latvian Braid is actually easier to knit than it looks.
Complete instructions are (as always) included.

I used yarn from Hobbii for this hat, but Sandness Sisu would work very well. I included the chart for the Hobbii colours as well as another chart for Rainbow Colours.

Please make sure that your floats are nice and lose or you will have a difficult time making the hat fit. Some people like to knit their stranded garments inside-out which will make the floats longer.

This pattern has been proof-read and test knitted to make it a success for you to knit.
