All About the Pattern
The Bavarian Forest Hat was designed to be the perfect accessory for your next outdoorsy adventure, whether that means exploring the tumbling waterfalls and tall evergreens of the Bavarian Forest, the snowy peaks of the Rockies, sledding with family in your backyard, or shopping with friends on a chilly night on the town — it’s perfect for any occasion! With a thick, woolly, worsted yarn and a deep brim, this hat will keep your ears nice and cozy, while the cables add the perfect amount of classic, winter-time texture. It’s really become a family favorite, and I hope you’ll enjoy knitting it as much as I’ve enjoyed making it for you!
