Description

These two hats were created to swatch for the Glentrekker Cardigan. Those who purchase the cardigan pattern will receive this hat pattern for free. It’s a fun way to get gauge! The Slouch Hat is knit from the bottom up in the round and sports a diamond cable along one side. The Toque is riddled with cables, like the Glentrekker Cardigan. It’s worked as a flat swatch and then is seamed and finished with applied cord and a crown worked in the round.
