A fun, completely gender neutral hat! Looks wonderful on men and women alike!

The name of this hat comes from the staggered ribbing looks like sun rays, beaming bright. Since most of my patterns are quite feminine, I wanted to make a design men would want to wear!

This is the perfect gift knitting pattern! Make it for everyone you know! a great choice for guys and gals!

Unlike most hats, where the brim is knit with a smaller size needle, this hat is knit entirely on one size of needle. Most of the hat is knit in ribbing, so I would suggest using one needle size up than you normally would for DK hats, due to the ribbing. This will give you a comfortable fit, not too tight. The entire hat is knit and then worn inside out to show the reverse stockinette, which is just a fancy term for back purl bumps. It really makes the design pop on the backside. The choice on which side this hat is worn is completely up to you of course, but this is just how it was designed. Just be sure to be careful weaving in your ends so can wear your new hat either way! This hat is a beanie style, with little slouch. The pattern will state where to continue knit rows if you’d prefer a slouchier style hat. I hope you enjoy it!

Thank you so much for supporting my small business and small family! We truly appreciate you!
Happy Knitting! Love, Molly xoxo
