Jesper Cloche

This design is named for Jesper Fahey from the Six of Crows duology by Leigh Bardugo. He is a charming and quick-witted sharpshooter with a penchant for gambling. He often wears a cocky smile and is known for his flashy style and love of guns. The textured pattern reminds me of clubs or spades from a deck of cards. Incorporating into a cloche just felt right for Jesper’s style, especially when the crown ends up like a bullseye! There are so many ways to style this if you're not a fan of the cloche style. Block the brim flat and wear it as a bucket hat. Block one side as instructed and style it as a bonnet with the fold in the front, as a cloche with the fold on the side and tilted, or as a baseball cap with the bill in front! Knowledge needed: Provisional cast on, M1R (make 1 stitch), and the basics (knit, purl, k2tog, ssk) **Materials:** Worsted weight ~215-220 yards Suggested yarns: Fainting Goat Fiber Co non-superwash worsted, Cascade 220 US 6/ 4mm 16” circular needles and DPNs or magic loop to finish crown US 5/ 3.75mm 16” circular needles or smaller needle size to join the provisional cast on to the body \*Stitch marker \*Tapestry needle \*Scissors \*Crochet hook (if needed for PCO) • Long piece of scrap yarn for provisional cast on For blocking: Helpful to have a 6-8” styrofoam ball for shaping, pins, and spray starch if you want to stiffen the brim (ie.
