Autumn Gold

Lace and Cable Knit Hat Pattern

£5.00

Autumn Gold is a 4ply, lightweight lace and cable knit hat pattern that can be worked as a beanie or a slouch hat. It is perfect for those in between seasons when there’s a bit of a chill in the air.  Choose to work from a written pattern or a chart.  If you prefer a beanie style shorter hat, instructions are given when to start your  decreases to achieve this look. Instructions are included for both knitting in the round or flat from the cuff up. Note the pattern has been updated and now features a very slightly different rib band than the original 2×2 rib photographed, as I wanted something that would flow better into the feather and fan pattern.
