Rock Climbing Hat

Since climbing ropes and draws come in a variety of bright colors I thought it would be fun to use them as a motif for a hat. The hat was created to use relatively small amounts of fingering weight wool yarn. Rock Climbing Hat fits most adult sized heads. First work the ribbing and then knit from a color chart. I used Knit Picks Palette yarns (for the dark green version) in these colors: Main Color - Larch Heather 120 yds Rope - Orange 15 yds Rope contrast - Lingberry 15 yds Quick Draw/sling - Tarragon 20 yds Carabiner - Silver 25 yds
