The Journey Hat pattern
This hat gets its name because I started designing this hat on a flight from Vancouver to London. The sport-weight yarn makes it lightweight, making it easy to pack for trips, yet still able to keep your head warm on those cooler mornings.
I wanted something that was simple to knit, that could be done with ease while occupying yourself on long journeys, whether it’s via plane, train or car. Perhaps even walking if (you are one of those super-skilled individuals that can do that!)
Though it may look like lots of purl stitches, fear not, this hat is contracted inside out so that the majority of stitches for the main body of the hat are knit stitches.
This unisex design would make a great gift for friends and family in your life. Made with sport weight yarn,
Sport-weight yarn also means it packs up light and small, perfect to squeeze into your luggage on your next trip!
The minimalist design makes for a long-lasting hat. Made inside out so you can keep in stockinette and slip stitches for the majority of the hat, which I feel we’re always more comfortable with than purling all stitches!
Materials
Sport weight wool - I used Juniper Farm Patagonia wool
4mm (US 6) circular knitting needles (or whatever size needed to obtain gauge)
7 stitch markers, including one to indicate BOR
Tapestry needle
Scissors
Gauge
In stockinette stitch, in the round. Washed and blocked:
19 stitches by 31 rows = 4 inches X 4 inches
Final Measurements
Head circumference: 52 (56) 58 cm | 20.5 (22) 23 inches
Final measurements (with approx. 2 inches negative ease): 47 (51) 54 cm | 18 (20) 21 inches
Estimated metre/yardage of yarn needed (including gauge swatch): 159 (169) 180 yards | 145 (154) 164 metres
This pattern would be nothing without my testers, so a big thank you to them!
