Polyphonic Hat
Pattern three from Musical Minds

Skill Level: Intermediate

If you are careful when joining new yarn and working decreases at the crown shaping then this hat can be reversible! The choice is yours, of course. My man decided he preferred the look of the purl side with stockinette stitches spiraling because he thought the way the knits “sink into the rest of it” was pretty cool.

Yardage Note
Important! You can easily finish the two smaller sizes with two skeins of yarn. The largest size can also be managed in two skeins, however, you will be cutting it extremely close. I finished my size large sample with just about 12” to spare. Because of this I feel more comfortable recommending 3 skeins for the larger size. Personally I would rather have a little extra than not quite enough. If you are comfortable risking it then two skeins will get you through.

Sizing Note
I made the largest size for my original (pumpkin colored) sample. I did this because I’d promised Chris most of the hats from this collection when I was done. (I figured since he was the inspiration and very graciously agreed to model the finished hats, it was a good thing to do.) The large size fits his 24” noggin’ comfortably and as intended. I also like the way it fits my 22” head (the hair adds a few inches) as a slouch style hat.
