Year of Gifts Kit - Snowdrop Hat

This graphic, slouchy knit hat is knit in Andorra using stranded colorwork in ink black and snow white. It is the kickoff design in the Year of Gifts collection, and is one of our most popular patterns. Check out it's sister design, the Newbold sweater! The Snowdrop Hat by Kate Gagnon Osborn begins with a provisional cast on, then a folded brim is worked in a K2, P2 Ribbing. Once the ribbing is complete, the provisional cast on is unpicked and placed on a spare circular needle and the stitches are joined to created a folded brim.

After the brim is complete, the body of the hat is worked in a graphic stranded colorwork pattern from a chart. The chart is worked 5 times around. Decreases shape the crown, and a pom pom and a cute custom KW tag completes the look.
