This simple ribbed hat is great for donations. The ribbing makes it stretch so it fits a variety of sizes, as does the fold-over brim. It is a nice, unisex style that works with many fashion styles. Of course, you don’t need to donate this hat, you can make it for yourself or for a gift for someone you know. No matter who you make it for, it will provide warmth and style.

Thank you for the patterns, I will put them to good use.
I am looking for patterns for small/med/lg dogs. I live in a rain forest and it keeps us plenty wet about 3/4 of the year (it is dry at present),
If you have any thoughts as to how/where I can make a slit (something like a buttonhole will work I think) I would appreciate hearing what you think.
Meanwhile, I will be exploring your other patterns.
Thanks once again,
sam
ps, please do not give out my info.
I don’t have any pet patterns, other than a leash. You may want to search that.
I like to knit and make mittens hats scarfs and donate them to the street people. Also like to make baby outfits.
That’s very kind of you!
Thank you for the pattern. I am just learning to knit and read patterns. To make this in two tone, how many rows do I need to do of the first color?
I didn’t count, I just changed the color when I thought it looked good. Just go with what you like. 🙂
