A simple, ribbed hat pattern for beginner and advanced knitters! Estelle Yarn’s Highland Alpaca Chunky is a great first-hat yarn because it’s soft, easy to work with, and knits up quickly using 6mm needles. Knit in the round, this hat has a stretchy 2x2 ribbed pattern that fits all head sizes, with foldover brim, and simple crown decreases - if you’ve never knit a hat, you’ll find this project very straightforward and easy to follow.
