Warm enough for winter, this little plaid hat is knit in the round, then felted in a washing machine. The plaid is accomplished by weaving strands of yarn vertically through rows of garter stitch- a simple technique with amazing results! Three colors are used in the plaid. Complete instructions are provided for how to felt the hat in a washing machine.

ANNOUNCEMENT: I have found that many of my customers are accomplished knitters but are unsure of their felting skills. There are many little tips that can help with felting that are too varied or random to include in every pattern. I have just started a newsletter to answer direct questions and offer some tips that will help you achieve the outcome you want. In it, I will also announce new patterns, provide newsletter-only discounts. The newsletter will be monthly and you will not be bombarded with emails! Thanks!
