Christmas dream pointed hat
Christmas dream pointed hat
Here you can buy the hat from our “Christmas Dream” set separately. You can also get it as a set together with the matching mittens. You can find all our Christmas patterns here: Christmas collection
Christmas Dream hat
The hat is knitted in the round from the bottom up. After the folded up ribbing, you knit a wide stripe in a multicolored pattern. You then continue knitting in the main colour with regular decreases.
Material
Lana Grossa Cool Wool big (120 m/50 g - 131 yds/1.76 oz) or Cool Wool (160 m/50 g - 175 yds/1.76 oz), Katia Merino 100%, Lang Merino 120%, Drops Merino Extra Fine
or any other matching yarn.
Yarn choices
We use Cool Wool big or Cool Wool from Lana Grossa for this pattern, although the yarns have different weights. The gauge of 24 sts on 10 cm is actually too small for Cool Wool big - this makes the hat particularly thick and warm. If you use the thinner yarn instead, your hat will not be quite as stiff.
Check your gauge swatch beforehand and if necessary switch to thinner needles in order to obtain the correct gauge.
You will need
circular needles size 4 mm (US 6)
DPNs size 4 mm (US 6)
tapestry needle
stitch marker
pompon (homemade or bought)

Measurements
Circumference
6-12 months: 33.5 cm (13.2”)
1-2 years: 37 cm (14.6”)
2-4 years: 40 cm (15.7”)
4-8 years: 43.5 cm (17.1”)
9 years+: 47 cm (18.5”)
Please note: The circumference refers to the finished hat, NOT to the actual head circumference. In order for the hat to fit well and not slip, its circumference must be a few cm/inches below the actual head circumference.
Size 9 years+ should also fit adults - but for large adult heads you can also cast on 8 additional stitches at the beginning (to fit an additonal pattern repeat) and thus knit the hat a little larger.
Gauge
24 sts = 10 cm (4”) with needle size 4 mm (US 6).
