Our Apricot Basic Hat called basic, not because it is easy, rather it is that typical beanie pattern with a long ribbed brim to fold and create a double brim, a slouchy crown and graduated decreases to make it fit the curve of your head. Knit in wool yarn, this hat is perfect for all your outdoor activities when the weather is cold, rainy, snowy and windy. This hat features 2x2 or 1x1 ribbing, a stockinette body, and decreases at the top of the hat to form the crown. The pattern is available in two versions, for either DK or worsted weight yarn.
