The Ships Project: Off Duty Roll Brim Hat, Charcoal

Off Duty Roll Brim Hat, Charcoal

The Crown

This hat is for The Ships Project.  I knit a little on it in three evenings. I knit it in luxury yarn because the wearers earned luxury yarn, the hat is quite plain, and I prefer luxury fibers.  I’ll attach a tag with yarn and care info.

• I wear hats in small and this was snug before blocking. After blocking it is very comfortable.
• I did my best to minimize the openness at the crown but I can tug only so much with dbl pointed needles.
• I added a few extra rows to protect against blended sea winds.
• Clean stitch definition.
• Soft. Warm. Love the color, Charcoal. Charcoal has a bit of halo/fluff but my roll brim hat in Lagoon did not.
