Hats for chilly seasons, these close-fitting wool cloche hats are designed to keep out cold and blustery winds.The heather mohair blend yarn enhances the vintage style; the crown and brim colors look subtly different, depending on the angle and the light. Tiny flecks of many colors make these wearable with just about any color in your wardrobe. These hats travel well, easily stuffed into a coat pocket or a bag, and can be dressed up with pins, brooches, and other decorations. The crown is knit from the top down, ending right above the ears. The brim is worked separately as a long bias strip with increases and decreases to shape it as you go and is sewn to the crown. A simple knit i-cord or crocheted cord trims the hat and covers the seam. Matilda has a plain brim; Tillie has a shaped brim with a knit-in hem, which can be worn with the narrow edge at the back (allowing for jacket and coat collars) or at the side for retro flair. Tips on adjusting the pattern for a personal fit are included. This pattern was designed with the specific properties of Peace Fleece in mind; a list of potential substitutes is included in the pattern.

The Rosie crochet pattern for the pink rosettes shown on the gray Tillie is included in this sale.
