I finished this Fine hat using the brand new colors Shitake and Red Hot. It is a winner! I want a few more of this one around my house. While I was waiting for the giveaway to wind down I posted about this hat on my other blog and asked if anyone had any name suggestions for the hat. One kind knitter suggested Chili Pepper and I loved this idea, so it is.
The hat is very versatile. It could be for a baby, child, woman or man. There are so many great color combinations you could use in Fine that the sky is the limit. After you are done with one colorway you can reverse the colors and make another hat to use up the leftovers. The hat is light as air on your head and the brim can be worn turned up or left down.
Here is some information you might like to know (please note the sizing information):
Size: Baby (small child, large child, woman, man)
Note: The hat is very stretchy and can fit a head that is several inches larger in circumference than the hat measurement. My head is 22-inches around and the 19-inch women’s size hat fits my head comfortably. My daughter’s head measures 21 ½ inches in circumference. The sample is knit in the 19-inch women’s size.
Circumference of the hat in approximate inches (the following measurements have been rounded): 14 (16, 18, 19, 20) inches
