Fiber Trends Pattern WP01
Design by Bev Galeskas
Pattern updated for use with Naturally Alpine or Natural Wool, the best white wool we have ever found for felting. Of course, if a white hat is not your style, this pattern works equally well in any color of this 14 ply New Zealand wool.
Sizes:
Small (child) & Large (adult).
The small size is designed for a child's head size of up to 20½" (52 cm).
The large size will fit adult head sizes from 21" to 24".
Amount of felting and how the finished hat is blocked will determine the exact size of your hat.
Yarn Requirements:
Approximately 200 (230) yards of bulky (14 ply) wool that will felt easily to a firm fabric.
Caution: Many white and natural colored wools do not felt well, if at all. If using a yarn other than those suggested, it is very important to test felt a sample to be sure that your yarn felts well and that you are happy with the resulting fabric.
Needles:
A 24" (circular needle and a set of double pointed needles both in US size 11 (8mm).
Gauge: Before felting, about 12 sts = 4" (10 cm).
Yarn Suggestions: Alpine 14ply, Natural Wool 14ply or Naturelle 14ply are recommended.
