VIVIAN
Knitted and Fulled Hat Pattern
pdf format $8.00
Designer: LISA CRUSE
AMBROSIA COTTAGE
Stylish and warm in a mad-hatter shape, the VIVIAN HAT PATTERN is a wonderful opportunity for embellishment! The pattern includes knitting instruction for the hat only. As the Lisa Cruse signature design, many suggestions for embellishment may be found throughout this website.
VIVIAN may be knitted in a solid color or two-toned as shown here or in any colorway you design. The knitting process is fast and the shaping is easy enough for novice knitters to tackle.
To create the hat one need only know how to work on a circular needle and double pointed needles, cast on, knit, purl, knit two together and make-one increase in a simple backward loop. Color changing is optional. Stitch counts are listed throughout the pattern for counting ease.
The yarn is two strands worsted held together as one throughout the project. Mohair and mohair blends may be used to good effect and the hat produced is an excellent foundation for needle felting or other embellishments.
Care must be taken during blocking to produce a crisp shape and from then on VIVIAN will reward you with warmth and attitude being almost impervious to even the harshest of wintry squalls and sloppy weather. VIVIAN is both elegant and practical, cozy in the country or charming on chilly city streets.

Knitted and Fulled Hat Pattern
pdf format $8.00
Designer: LISA CRUSE

The original HORN HAT is knitted from one skein of a single strand of Brown Sheep Lamb's Pride Bulky. The pattern uses short rows for shaping and is a quick knit. Double decreases create neat shaping for the crown of the hat. Blocking is done over a bowl for a solid form and smooth yet daring style. The horn may be worn in different directions for different effects. Try it centered at front or angled to the side in various positions.
Embellish as you desire and flaunt your jaunty chapeau. Model shown has a needle felted swirl of bulky yarn with accents of French knots embroidered in bulky yarn. Wouldn't a tassel or two on the point be dashing? Hmm, how about a stunning brooch strategically placed at center.
