Simply Chevron Hat works well in a cotton or wool blend. The hat is worked in diagonal left & right stitches (400 knitting stitches, p30, 31) giving the knitter something interesting to do, but keeping the texture simple enough for either gender. This hat takes just a few hours to knit, and makes the Simply Chevron Hat perfect for gifts or charity.
