Capitán Hat

Alison found this hat pattern by Rosi Garmendia and knitted the hat for display in one night. The pattern is for private use only. Alison used a skein of our MistiAlpaca Chunky 2-ply. Looks great!

Rosi says: "Here’s a hat pattern that is easy to memorize and fits from a child to an adult with a big head or lots of hair! Knit this up in a couple of hours for a quick gift". Email us for the free pattern in pdf format.
