Stormy Harbour Hat

I hope I convinced to you to knit and crochet with us this June and July in the Splash Pad Party. I love the fun community Jen has built up around her podcast. I think her clear love of her extended family is part of what lets her so easily gather an extended crafting family.

I developed a special pattern that is currently exclusively available through the Vendor Market thread in the Downcellar Studio Podcast Ravelry group. Because I’m a ProShop sponsor, knitting it will earn you 3 entries for the prize drawings on top of your yarn entries! (Each 50g of yarn you work up earns you 1 entry.)

Everyone needs a go-to fantastic cabled beanie pattern in worsted weight yarn.

This hat combines two wave patterns to conjure up that feeling of looking out over the lake from a cabin. Shorter, sharper waves are driven by the stiff winds of a stormy grey sky while a few larger swells are created by the passing of a white-hulled boat.

Despite the complex appearance, every other round is a resting round – where you knit the knits and purl the purls. And for those of you who use charts, the last page of this pattern contains a handy checklist to help you keep track of which round you are working for each of the two stitch patterns.
