A beautiful rendition of America’s Great Flag! Bordered with garter stitch, the red and white stripes wave around the hat in a variation on an old shale pattern stitch. The blue field with white stars worked in fairisle crowns the top of the hat.

Pattern is written for worsted weight yarn. Gauge is 5 sts per inch on US Size 6 (4mm) needles. The pattern is written for 3 sizes - 18”, 21” and 24”, medium child, small and large adult, in both circular knitting and flat knitting.

It includes row-by-row written instructions and two charts for the stars - one for knitting flat with a seam and one for knitting in-the-round.

Trish Designs patterns are innovative, unique and always fun to do. The patterns are expertly written in an easy-to-follow manner with step-by-step instructions. They include color pictures, schematics with all pertinent measurements, charts where applicable and written row-by-row stitch pattern instructions. Each pattern is in a clear plastic sheet protector which fits easily into a three-ring binder.

Most of the patterns are written generically with specific information as to the yarns used in the model. Others are written for specific yarns. All the patterns include complete materials information, including all yardage requirements and stockinette stitch gauges in addition to pattern stitch gauges, making it easy to substitute any yarn. They also include any special techniques used in the construction of the design.

If you have any questions with the knitting, I’m always happy to help.
