pattern: Joe Hat by Jane Richmond
yarn: Lion Brand Fisherman's Wool (100% wool)
needles: US 9 / 5.5 mm 16" circs and DPNs
Carlos was introduced to me by Colin, who knew he'd love a warm winter hat just as the weather started to turn cold down in Argentina! Claiming bad fashion sense, Carlos left me to pick out a hat pattern and color for him - a very daunting task!
I decided to go with a classic Joe Hat in brown wool - perfect to match with almost everything in Carlos' wardrobe and just in time for the freezing temps to set in!
I knit the Joe hat according to pattern, leaving 1" off the length before decreasing. This gives the hat proper length without having a fold-over brim, a look I've grown super fond of.
You can see a few more pictures of Carlos modeling his hat over on my Ravelry page.

I'm making 10,000 hats for 10,000 people. This is hat 110.
Thank you so much for the hat, Robyn! It definitely suits my wardrobe and my fashion sense (nonexistent).
ReplyDeleteLove what you're doing, keep it up!
Much love,
