Newlyn ~ a textured stitch patterned slouchy hat that was inspired by today’s fashion trends and named after my love of all things Celtic

‘Newlyn’ ~ Celtic origin: meaning from the new spring

Designer’s Note:
Worked flat: back and forth in rows ~ my preferred knitting technique using my bamboo straights.

Construction: Worked from the brim to crown in one piece then seamed.

For a trendy slouchy look, place hat at the back of head.

Designed to fit:
American Girl Dolls & 18” Gotz Dolls
like my model, Julia, that shares the same body type

Skill Level:
Easy-Intermediate: Project with a variety of stitches, such as basic cables, mid level shaping and finishing.
