Product Details

I know this is massively dating myself, but… anyone else remember the pastel-and-grey striped sweatshirts that were everywhere in the late ’80s-early ’90s? Usually they were pastel pink or blue or mint green. Pretty sure they were Gap shirts, but there might have been some Guess and a bunch of knock-offs, too. I picked up some fabulous yarn that reminded me of those sweatshirts, so I knit a striped brioche hat with it!

To knit this hat, you will need:

Approximately 75 meters/82 yards aran weight yarn in both a main colour and contrast colour. Sample shown in Illimani Amelie.

4 mm circular needles with a 40 cm/16 inch cable (size 6 US) 4.5 mm circular needles with a 40 cm/16 inch cable (size 7 US)

Set of 4.5 mm dpns (size 7 US)

Stitch markers

Tapestry needle

Gauge 16 sts = 10 cm/4 inches in brioche stitch
