Rib Stripe Hat Knitting Pattern

Rib Stripe Hat Knitting Pattern- a fun twist on the classic ribbed hat!

The weather has been frigid lately which has me hiding out indoors and knitting up a storm! This Rib Stripe Hat Knitting Pattern breaks up the ribbing by adding horizontal stripes. This is a fun hat to knit and the pattern is easy enough that beginners will have no trouble following it.

This pattern is knit on circular needles and it features a 10 row pattern that alternates garter stitch and ribbed stitches.

Happy knitting!
