This Sea Glass Hat is perfect for the beginner knitter – no purling, increasing, decreasing or knitting in the round! The Double Row Knitting technique is easy to learn as long as you can cast on, knit and cast off. This hat easily converts from a slouch hat to a beanie for an off-season trip to the beach.

Double Row Knitting creates a garment with a horizontal rib. This translates to a reversible fabric that has excellent drape and coziness.
