Description
Philip – This hat pattern is worked bottom-up, starting with the brim, followed by the body, and then decreasing for the crown. This hat pattern has multiple sizes as well as both beanie and slouchy versions – so you’ll be able to find the perfect fit regardless of your personal style.
Worked in the round, Philip contains written directions and charts. When the crown becomes too small to continue, you’ll switch to the magic loop method or DPNs (depending on your knitting preference).
