Kit Contents:

The fantastic Stony Stream Hat is a cosy textured hat, ideal for beginner cable knitters or a quick last-minute gift. The brim of the hat begins with 2x2 ribbing, followed by stripes and cabled slip stitches. The main colour is worked for four rows as you slip the contrast colour stitches. The contrast colour is worked for two rows with a simple cable cross to form the meandering stony stream pattern. The chunky yarn yields a plush fabric that is quick to knit and warm to wear. You can choose your favourite two-colour combination of West Wool chunky weight Cargo and enjoy knitting the bold stripes and textured stitches of this satisfying hat!

Yarn that is dyed in batches may have some variation in colour between skeins taken from different lots. We take great care in photographing our kits and yarns accurately, however colours may vary slightly from the pictures.

About the pattern

Choose two colours of chunky weight wool like West Wool Cargo to knit this cosy, textured hat. The brim begins with 2x2 ribbing followed by stripes and cabled slip stitches. The main colour is worked for four rows as you slip the contrast colour stitches. The contrast colour is worked for two rows with a simple cable cross to form the meandering stony stream pattern. The chunky yarn yields a plush fabric that is quick to knit and warm to wear. I recommend this hat pattern for a beginner cable project and a quick last minute gift knit. The bold stripes and textured stitches are so satisfying to knit!

Finished Measurements

21″ / 53cm circumference, 9″ / 23cm from CO edge to top of hat. Measurements taken after blocking. The length is customizable.

The hat is shown on a 22.5″ / 57cm head circumference for a fit with negative ease. I recommend achieving a finished hat size that is 1 – 2″ / 2.5 - 5cm smaller than your actual head circumference for a fit with negative ease.

You can achieve slightly different size by adjusting your needle size and gauge. Try these needle and gauge recommendations to customise the fit of your hat.
