Slouchy Candle flame hat

File 303File 307

This is just the loveliest hat I've ever made <3 It's made using the beautiful Candle Flame stitch pattern, from the wonderful shawl by the same name by Dean Crane. My mum asked for a warm and slouchy hat for the cold season, and the Candle Flame came to mind - now I simply have to have one for myself Smile

It's knit with 2 strands of Semilla by BC Garn wool yarn (DK weight) on US size 6 needles and the brim is doube, so it's really warm and thick Smile I used almost 3 skeins of Semilla (50g/160m). The pattern is for a head circumference of 22 ", but it stretches enough to fit head sizes on both sides of this measurement - and there are directions for adjusting the pattern if you need it to be larger or are using other yarns/needle sizes and have a different gauge.
