I’m hope you aren’t tired of sock set patterns! Because I love them and I’m always trying to challenge myself to find a new application for these sets. And this time it’s a hat! The Tendril Hold Hat is a way to do delicate lace that is fall and winter appropriate, with a lined brim and a hint of your contrast peeking through those little windows. This hat has all the details, including a picot edge and climbing decreases in the crown.

Thank you so much for your support of Tendril Hold. Please use the tag #tendrilholdhat to share with me on instagram! Seeing your yarn choices and watching your progress is the greatest joy. Happy knitting!
