Crackling Hat by Jenn Wisbeck
Corrugated Ribbing and Colorwork in Contrasting Colors
Knit from the bottom up in the round with corrugated ribbing for the hem, this hat has a simple eight stitch
repeat to form the pattern. The pattern will work best in solid and semi solid yarns with some contrast. The fit
is loose, with minimal ease to help prevent “hat hair”.
