I knit this hat in dozens of configurations until I settled on a version I loved. This super bulky cable pattern has a brim that reminds me of white pine tree trunks, young and old. The hat takes me right to some tall pines in my neighborhood, and the top has a neat clover shape that’s an ode to the forest floor beneath. I’ve named it the Circle of Pines hat.

The hat is knit in the round from the bottom up. The pattern gives directions for one size- average adult large, with instructions to make the hat shorter as well.

Uses US 11 - 8.0mm and US 15 - 10.0mm needles.
