Primero Hat
This hat was designed to be an ideal first stranded knitting project. It is meant to cover all of the basic skills that ones needs to do stranded knitting on a small, rewarding project that slowly builds in difficulty. Pattern includes a page of notes for successful stranded knitting.
The Primero Hat never uses more than two colors in the same row and a single color is used for no more than 5 consecutive stitches through most of the color work. A wool or wool blend yarn is recommended for maximum “forgiveness” and memory, especially for a knitter new to stranded knitting.
Stranded knitting is represented in the color knitting chart.
Skills:
This pattern requires the knitter to work knit, purl, and decrease stitches in the round for the basic hat shape. This pattern does not recommend a particular method for knitting in the round.
Size:
Hat is sized from 12” to 22” in 2” increments. Measurements for each size assume 1-2” of negative ease for a snug-fitting and warm hat.
Yarn Substitutions:
Cascade 220, Dream in Color Classy, Madelinetosh Vintage or your favorite worsted weight wool or wool-blend yarn. Yardage listed is based on the entire skein. In practice, the hat does not use an entire skein of any of the colors.
