This is a beautiful hand knit hat pattern featuring a clever design trick I call the "switchback".
I put quite a lot of care into designing this pattern, hoping it would seem almost like pages out of my personal scrapbook, shared with you. It features a full-color cover sheet with a photo of the knitted item, a photo of our beautiful barn, and a timely quote from the "I Live on a Farm" blog.

The pattern includes color reference photos of details and helpful info to convert the pattern for men or infants and children.
Plus, as an added bonus I have included an extra page at the back for your own journal entries about the project including a space to add a photo of the hat you make following my pattern.
This pattern is six pages total (cover, four sheets of instructions, and one personal journal sheet).
Best wishes,
