Modified Rib Hat
A densely textured pattern worked at a relatively tight gauge makes this hat warm, even on blustery days. It begins with a decorative cast-on followed by a few garter ridges, then changes to a rib pattern with slip stitches that draws in width-wise for a sturdy fabric. If you prefer a little more drape, follow the instructions for the looser gauge of 3 1/2 stitches/inch instead. The hat shown here is worked in Aran-weight yarn, but instructions are provided for fingering-, sport-, worsted-, and bulky-weight yarns as well.
