The Mistake Rib Baby Hat is a freebie from Ravelry. I found it while browsing for a pattern to use up this one lonely skein of discontinued Rowan RYC Cashcotton DK that I had bumming around the stash.
The color is #602, but that’s about all I can tell you. I picked this skein up from the orphan bin a couple years ago because it was too pretty to leave behind.
The hat features a simple mistake rib brim that is a little more interesting than your traditional 1×1 or 2×2 ribbing, but doesn’t have quite as much give. Then it flows into normal stockinette hat construction.
I chose to alter the hat slightly and gave it a traditional swirled decrease top as opposed to the ties that are on the original pattern. I also made the smallest size in this hat and it was too small for Izy, so it’s somewhere around the newborn head range.
