Broken Rib Hat Knitting Pattern - Purlfoundry

The broken rib stitch creates a classic, ribbed look, and the fold-up brim can be worn two ways for added slouch or a more fitted look.

This is a printed pattern. Beautifully printed and folded into A DLE envelope brochure size, this will be posted to you.

Designed to be worn with up to 5cm of negative ease, this relaxed-fit beanie is slightly slouchy, with a length 2.5cm longer than your natural head height. However, you can easily adjust the length for a more fitted crown if you prefer. This is your hat, after all! Order your Broken Rib Hat pattern today and start knitting your perfect beanie.
