Charlie Hat

Charlie Hat is a chunky ribbed hat featuring a wide, double-folded brim. The hat is knitted from the bottom up in 3x1 rib, combining different yarns to create a soft and voluminous texture. First, the brim is knitted, folded inward, and joined to the cast-on edge. The work is then turned so that the rib pattern continues on the outside of the hat. Finally, the crown is shaped with decreases that create a decorative pattern.
