Here’s a hat and collar duo that will keep you toasty warm in any weather.
SIZE
Toddler (child, adult, large adult).
Hat: to fit head circumference 46 (52, 56, 60) cm / 18 (20.5, 22, 23.5)”
Collar: circumference at the top 30 (34, 36, 39) cm / 11.75 (13.5, 14.25, 15.25)”
Instructions are given for the smaller size, with the larger sizes in parentheses.
YARN
Any wool yarn that has the equivalent of 150 m / 164 yds in 50 g / 1.7 oz (it is consistent with DK weight that is marked by digit 3 on the yarn label). The pattern has a link to a tutorial that explains how to substitute yarn in three simple steps.
You will need:
For hat: 200 (230, 250, 270) m / 220 (250, 280, 300) yds of each of the two colours.
For collar: 210 (240, 270, 280) m / 230 (260, 290, 310) yds of each of the two colours.
Hat and collar shown in the photo are knitted with Knitca Delight yarn (100% superwash merino wool) in pearl and pale taupe colours.
The colour pattern looks great in colours that are close in shade. Feel free to choose more contrasting colour combinations for hats and collars made for kids and fun-loving adults.
NEEDLES
Circular needles in size 5.5mm (US size 9).
You can use shorter circular needles to make the body of the hat, and then switch to double pointed needles when you start shaping the crown.
Or, you can work on longer circular needles (80 cm / 32” or longer) using the magic loop method.
NOTIONS
Crochet hook in size 5mm (H-8) for casting on, a row counter, a safety pin or a locking stitch marker, a wool needle for finishing.
