Please note this is a KNITTING PATTERN ONLY with an intermediate skill level. You will not receive a finished hat. You will receive a downloadable PDF file (in English) that provides some written instructions, a chart for the main body of the hat, a photo tutorial and a link to a video technique tutorial so you can knit one yourself for an average adult head.
I love the comfy coziness of a double brim hat, and the addition of little whirls and swirls to the brim makes this baby such a fun knit with a touch of whimsy! If you’ve never made a double brim hat before, I’ll walk you through it step-by-step with this pattern—I’ve totally got you. So get ready for some double brim goodness that will feel like a warm hug around your ears!
