Design

A new addition to the SNOW FERN COLLECTION.
This hat was designed as a companion piece for my previously released Snow Fern Fingerless Mitts.

Pattern Notes
Worked in the round with cables that slowly taper outwards and inwards, creating fern-like shapes. A longtail tubular cast-on is utilized, allowing this hat to fit a wider range of head sizes. Written in 2 adult sizes. S/M & L/XL. See the finished measurements below. All repeats appear in bold text throughout the pattern. The pattern is charted and also includes separate written instructions.
