Cornice

Warm DK yarn and cleverly shaped earflaps make Cornice the ideal choice for cold weather. Add a pompom and enjoy classic ski Hat styling with a fresh colour twist. Despite the elegant architectural design, Cornice uses only knit and purl stitches, plus simple increases and decreases. Written in five sizes, with tutorials for the cable cast-on and knitting in the round, it’s an accessible and rewarding knit. **Yarn** 100 (113, 133, 149, 173) yd/90 (102, 120, 134, 155) m 83yd/75m for the pompom (optional; can also be a different yarn, leftovers etc) 47yd/43m for a 6x6in/15x15cm swatch in St.St. DK weight, single ply yarn. **Needles & Notions** Set 3.5mm/UK--/US4 DPNs/Circular or size needed to obtain gauge Stitch marker as necessary Tapestry needle **Sample details** Shown in Manos del Uruguay Silk Blend (300yd/270m per 100g; 70% Merino, 30% Silk) Shown in size 22.5in/57.25cm on model with 22in/56cm circumference head **Gauge** 24 sts x 36 rows to 4in/10cm on 3.5mm over St.St. 24 sts x 48 rows to 4in/10cm on 3.5mm over Garter St. **Sizes** To fit size: 18 (19.5, 21, 22.5, 24) in/ 45.75 (49.5, 53.25, 57.25, 61) cm Finished size: 16 (17.25, 18.75, 20, 21.25) in/ 40.75 (43.75, 47.75, 50.75, 54) cm **Skills required** Knit & purl sts, knitting in the round, increases & decreases, pompoms **Pattern contents** Written instructions; illustrated tutorials for Cable Cast-on & Knitting in the Round; schematic for pompom **Accessibility Statement** The main PDF for this pattern is colour blind accessible.
