Roli Hat

Roli is a simple hat with a slightly rolled edge, a gathered crown and a little slouch. It is knit in the round on a circular needle and cinched/gathered at the top for a quick and easy finish. A great beginner project and quicker to knit than a scarf! It only uses the knit stitch, with no increasing, decreasing, or seaming together at the end. A simple gift knit, or a soft cosy hat for yourself, perhaps in a colour to go with your favourite winter coat. Graphic Design by Jen Allison **Sizes** The pattern includes 6 sizes: Newborn 13”-15” (33cm-40cm) Baby 17”-18” (43cm-46cm) Small Child 18”-20” (46cm-51cm) Child/Teen 20”-22” (51cm-56cm) Adult 23” (58cm) Large Adult 24”-26” (61cm-66cm) **Video Tutorials** The pattern includes video tutorials for techniques such as casting on, knitting in the round, cinching the top of your hat, weaving in ends and blocking your finished hat for a professional result. I hope these videos will support you in getting started and assist you along the way. Sometimes just watching a technique can make it so much clearer. **Materials** The large adult size uses 1 x 50g skein of Myak baby yak medium (114m/125yards). All other sizes use less than that. 5mm circular needle (16” or 40cm length) for large adult, adult, child/teen, small child sizes. For newborn and baby sizes use a 12”/30cm length circular needle or a longer circular needle (80-100cm) with “magic loop” technique. **Gauge** 17.5 stitches/10cm (4 inches) before blocking (from a swatch that has been knit in the round) 16 stitches /10cm (4 inches) after wet blocking **Follow me** https://www.instagram.com/tinamcleish/?hl=en **Pattern support** Pattern support is available by contacting me on the email at the end of the pattern.
