Sagamore Flyover Hat

The Sagamore Flyover Hat is a simple, textured hat intended for a beginner hat knitter but flexible and fun enough to add into the rotation for experienced knitters too! With an easy to memorize pattern, experienced knitters will be able to sail through this project with only glances at the pattern. For newbies, use my checkbox system to mark off each round so you never lose your place. Because of the textured, ribbed effect and the 5 sizes available, it will easily work for babies through adult sizes. Guidance is given for beanie and slouchy lengths with details on how to customize for your perfect fit. **Skills & Stitches Used:** Long tail cast-on, knit, purl, knit 2 together, purl 2 together. **Finished Hat:** * 14 (16, 18, 20, 22) in / 35.5 (40.5, 45.75, 50.75, 55.75) cm in circumference. * Samples: Size 2 & 3 both shown on 21.5-in / 54.5 cm circumference head. Because the stitch pattern is stretchy, you may find smaller sizes still fit, just more snugly than is recommended. If knitting a size 2 for a teen/adult, you may want to follow the number of body repeats for sizes 3-5. **Total Height:** * Sizes 1 & 2: Beanie version is 7 in / 17.8 cm tall. Slouchy version is 8 in / 20.25 cm tall. * Sizes 3-5: Beanie version is 8 in / 20.25 cm tall. Slouchy version is 9 in / 22.75 cm tall. * Intended to be worn with 2-4 in / 5-10 cm of negative ease. This pattern has been tech edited & test knit so you can knit on with confidence, but if you ever have any questions, don’t hesitate to message me. **About The Name** The Sagamore Flyover eliminated the troublesome rotary that delayed beachgoers from getting onto the Sagamore Bridge and down to Cape Cod on summer weekends. I hope you’ll find this straightforward hat pattern helps you sail along just as smoothly.
