The Clarissa Hat is an easy and interesting hat to knit. The hint of cables that circle the hat and the classic Stockinette stitch add a touch of elegance. It is neither a slouch nor a fitted hat making it perfect for dressy and casual attire. Design features include a cable hat band, perpendicular Stockinette stitching, and a slightly puffy top.

Three sizes are included.

This design is a companion pattern to two of my other patterns.
