Anne of Green Cables Hats

I’m a huge Anne of Green Gables fan, but since I became a knitter, I keep on typing Green Cables. I loved the hat on the Gnot Just Another Gnome pattern so much I knew I wanted to make it sized for humans, too, and I was running an Anne readalong at the same time. It was a sign. (Or was it just a hundred mis-typings?)

I knew I wanted to do a big pointy hat like Gnathan wears in that pattern, but I also know I’m not always in the mood for a manic pixie vibe. So a sophisticated slouchy toque seemed like a good plan as well.

When you buy this pattern you get 2 PDFs – 1 for each hat style.
