The Pat Hat is a beanie-style hat with elegant twisted rib and cable details. It looks great on men and women. This pattern is written for 2 weights of yarn: bulky and sport.

RECOLLECTION

The Pat Hat is part of Recollection; a collection of accessories and garments designed specifically to highlight oddments of special skeins, material memories of projects, friendships, holidays and occasions.
These materials, with which we spend so much time when we knit, become impregnated with the memory of that project: the places we knit it, the person the finished object went to, the way we felt when we made it. Those things, feelings and memories are precious. This collection is designed to honour those memories, bringing them together in a conscious way to make a new knit incorporating those precious remnants.

I chat about the Pat Hat in the upcoming episode of the EastLondonKnit Podcast.
