Short Description: The Sascha Hat features a tiered raindrop colorwork motif, deep ribbing, and a contrasting cast-on at the brim. The hat can be blocked into a soft beret shape, or if left unblocked, fits nicely as a beanie. The stranded colorwork technique is great for cold weather. The two strands create a double layer that will keep you extra warm.
Gauge: 26 sts x 28 rows = 4” in stockinette color pattern.
Finished Measurements:
- 19” circumference at ribbing
- 25“ circumference at widest part of tam
- 9” tall from the brim to the top
