I am crushing on this cute hat with flower embellishment, big time. It is so fun to wear and simple to knit. I knitted the hat last year, then crocheted the flower recently to jazz things up a bit. It is the perfect addition and I am excited to share how I did it with you. If you make your own, come share pictures with me, please!
***Pattern***
Worsted or aran weight yarns may be used, but please check gauge.
Gauge 17sts x 26 rows in stockinette stitch = 4 inches or 10cm
Gauge does not have to be exact, as the hat is stretchy. This pattern makes a hat to fit most teens and adult females.
5.5mm (US #9) dpns or circular needles
If using circular needles, a length of 40 inches is recommended for magic looping throughout.
Garter Brim Hat
Cast on 72 sts. Join in the round, place marker for end of round.
BRIM:
Rows 1-8: Begin working in stockinette stitch; knit one row, purl one row – for the brim of the hat.
BODY:
Rows 9-40: Change to stockinette stitch (knit every row) and continue until the hat measures 6.5 inches from the cast-on edge (about 40 rows).
CROWN:
Row 1: *K6, K2tog* repeat to end of row
Row 2: Knit (on this and all even numbered rows)
Row 3: *K5, K2tog* repeat to end of row
Row 5: Knit across all stitches
Row 7: *K4, K2tog* repeat to end of row
Row 9: *K3, K2tog* repeat to end of row
Row 11: *K2, K2tog* repeat to end of row
Row 13: *K1, K2tog* repeat to end of row

Run yarn through remaining stitches and pull tight to secure. Weave in ends.

If you can get the pattern to print, high light the pattern, copy it and then paste it in another document. I put it in an email and sent it to myself. Then you can print it out whenever you want.
*can’t get it to print is what I meant to say. 😀
please send me the pattern, as I cannot get it to print.
My Step Grand Daughter loves this pattern.
Please email me the pattern for the hat and flower. I’m unable to print it.
Please send me the pattern for the flower and hat. I’m unable to print it. Thank you.
Hi, Ilove the blue flower on your pretty hat!
I am trying to make one and I noticed that you have 7 back row petals followed by 6, then 5 on the picture. Then I read the directions for making the flower and there are 11, 11, then 5 petals. Is the direction for a different flower?
Thank you!
I sent you a email for the pattern Cross Comfort Cap. I got the email back. But what i was wanting is the pattern by it’s self. I don’t have the download you have on the pattern
I don’t like all the comments that is at the end, to print out. I think it is a waste of paper. Since I’m on a fixed income. i kit a lot of chemo hats and caps for cancer patiences.
Please just send me the pattern
