The Strong Whiskey Hat is a bottom up hat worked in the round with a folded brim using twisted stitches to create this beautiful pattern.

Sebastian’s hat is knitted in the adult size and the body pattern is repeated ONLY 3 times to create a very fitted beanie.

The Hat Decrease is approx 1.5 inch (3.5 cm) high so please take into consideration while knitting the body to get your perfect height.

My hat has 5 repeats in the body section.

Only written instructions are available.
