Description
The Absalon Hat is knit in brioche. Such a fun pattern for the advanced, or really adventurous knitter!
The Absalon Hat Knitting Kit Includes two full size skeins of our Homegrown DK yarn (approx. 250 yds / 228 m/ 115 g).
NOTE: Kit includes a PDF of our Absalon Hat Knitting pattern that will be made available to you upon checkout here, via a download link. Prices may vary by color combination based on the yarn bases included.
Knit in the round, bottom up, Absalon is patterned with rows of tulips, and benefits from the use of contrasting yarns. You can certainly select yarns that are more subtle in their differences, as in the sample Sheri is wearing on the cover of this pattern. Or you can select yarns with much more starkness in their contrast as in the picture on the next page. Either way, this is a really fun knit.
