As you can see from my previous post, I have been on a hat making craze lately. This one I completed last night. The pattern looks to me like interlocking gears, hence the name I gave the hat. Here is the pattern, enjoy!
Materials:
Size 3 US circular needles or DPNs
Super fine yarn. I used Loops and Threads Woolike, an 85% acrylic, %15 nylon yarn, 2 different colors (A and B), 1 ball of each. The colors I used are mauve (A) and rose (B).
Needle for weaving in ends
Gauge:
15 sts = 2" in pattern
Instructions:
CO 120 stitches with color A, place marker and join, careful not to twist stitches.
With A, K 2 rows
With A, work K3, P3 pattern for 2 1/2"
Pattern rows:
**With A, K 5 rows
Add color B
Next row: *K2 with A, K2 with B, repeat from * to end of row

With B, K 5 rows
Next row: *K2 with B, K2 with A, repeat from * to end of row
