I have a real thing for bobbles and texture and I decided that perhaps the time had come for something more distinctive and eye catching in my range of hat designs - and possibly, something also a bit more feminine looking.

Written instructions are given in the 3 page download, and there are no charts to follow. There are 2 types of bobble stitch, one in the rib and the other in the body of the hat. A lovely slipped, textured stitch is worked in between the bobbled rows.

Suitable from child to adult, and once more, perfect for gift knitting - and stash busting, this hat is designed to be worn slightly slouchy.

Knit in the round, it is designed for DK weight yarn using a 4 mm (USA 6) circular needle, it would be most effective in a solid or semi solid.
