The Husband Hat

[CrisKad]

My hubby wanted a simple, no frills hat that folded up with a large brim. I whipped this super easy pattern up. Sorry its on a girl head mannequin, but I don't have a man's head yet. It fits hubby's noggin perfectly.

 

 

 

Edited to add pattern:

 

Material:

 

2 skeins of Patons Classic Merino Wool

I (5.5mm) hook

 

 

 

Gauge: 6 rows x 6hdc = 2"

 

Use a stitch marker to mark the beginning of each row. Do not join rounds

 

 

Holding two strands of yarn together:

Round 1: Using magic ring, sc 6 stitches into ring (6)

Round 2: 2 sc in each st. (12)
