Stash-Busting Style in Every Stitch The Shadow Hat is a lightweight, top-down knit that’s as fun to make as it is to wear. Designed in stockinette stitch and worked in the round, this clever hat features a folded brim created by picking up stitches through the bind-off, adding both structure and style. Originally knit with 3 strands of fingering-weight yarn held together, it’s the perfect excuse to dive into your scrap yarn stash and get creative. Whether you blend colours for a marled effect or play with textures, the Shadow Hat is made to be uniquely yours. Prefer a single strand? You can also substitute with heavier yarns like worsted or aran weight to suit your style. Weighing just 60–90 g depending on size, the Shadow Hat is a fast and satisfying knit — ideal for gifting, stash-busting, or experimenting with colour combinations. Just don’t forget to swatch for gauge! Our Shadow Hat Pattern & Yarn Pack includes 2 balls of Knitting For Olive Merino Yarn and a digital pattern. This yarn pack is for the 6-24 months pattern size.
