Hayloft Hat Pattern

The Hayloft Hat Pattern by Juliette Pécault Designs is the official gather here 2021 Greater Boston Yarn Crawl pattern! We love releasing something that is designed to celebrate the start of decorative gourd season and coincides with a celebration of local yarn shops in Eastern Massachusetts. This pattern will be free with any yarn purchase during the 2021 crawl (September 30 - October 3, 2021). Please note this is a pdf pattern.

From the designer: The texture and broken lines of the slip stitch pattern of this beanie makes for a cozy, visual interesting hat but also a fun knit! The folded brim is easy to work and adds a clean edge to the beanie. This hat can be worked in one color or two, with a high or low contrast depending on personal preference. The thick, squishy fabric of the slip stitch makes this the perfect accessory for staying warm on a cold autumn evening!
