Willow Newsboy
Willow newsboy is a hat I have been making for awhile but have just gotten round to writing it down after a friend had requested one.
Available in small children’s sizes right up to large adult. (please see photo gallery below)
Worked using double strands of chunky weight yarn (size 5) this hat will work up in super fast time.
The pattern uses only basic stitches and has a photo tutorial for the crab stitch.
A suitable project for a confident beginner or for someone looking to make a modern trendy hat in a short space of time.
The pattern is available in both US and UK terms. It has also been tested by my wonderful group of pattern testers who I am very grateful for.
