It takes a little more work than basic ribbing, but the effort pays off – the result looks stunning when stretched. Level ●●○○○ (2 of 5) How to work the knitwear: The Kallio hat is worked in twisted ribbing from the brim to the crown. The crown is shaped with six-part decreases that give the hat its modern and stylish look. You can fold the edge twice or three times - you choose! As the hat is made of lightweight knit, it’s perfect especially for the transitional seasons. The pattern is also a great way to use up a single skein of fingering-weight sock yarn you haven’t yet found a project for. Sizes S - kiddo (M - adult) Size guide To fit head circumference approx. 52-54 (56-58) cm / 20.75-21.5 (22.5-23.25)” Hat pictured in size M Finished measurements Finished circumference 31 (34) cm / 12.5 (13.75)” without stretching Yarn 70 (75) g of any fingering weight sock yarn (75 % merino wool, 25 % nylon - approx. 420 m / 460 yds / 100 g). Sock yarn is preferred just because the hat won’t get as loose as when using for example single merino yarn.
