Super Sledding Hat

At the Stash Buster event at Apple Yarns, I picked up the book "55 Christmas Balls to Knit" by Arne & Carlos and stumbled upon a fun sledding chart. It brought back fun memories of sledding with my kids on Mt. Baker in Washington State. I made a few tweaks to the chart and created a Super Sledding Hat. Rios by Malabrigo is the perfect yarn for this project (and many more) because it's super soft and a joy to knit with. The tighter gauge in the brim makes the hat warm and cozy. This playful hat will keep your ears toasty and is perfect for sledding with loved ones. Have fun knitting and sledding!

This is a large adult hat, it is meant to cover your ears.

👉 The kit includes 2 skeins of Malabrigo Rios, 6 stitch markers, a printed color pattern, and a clear project bag with handles. There is enough yarn to make a pompom or a reverse colored hat.

👉 The Kit does not include the knitting needles or other notions; pattern calls for US 4 (3.75mm) for the brim and US 7 (4.5mm) for the hat body and #7 dpn's. The pattern is sized adult, 19" to 22".

About the yarn: Malabrigo Rios is super soft, strong, and washable. This 4-ply yarn is our workhorse! The plies help resist pilling, and its washability makes it fantastic for frequently worn garments, housewares, and children's and baby clothes.
