Maize

Designed by Ashley Jane McIntyre

Rustic beauty and seasonal charm define the Maize hat. This cozy beanie utilizes a clever mosaic crochet technique to mimic brioche ribbing, twisting into a leaf-like motif at the front of the hat. Linear’s silky-soft blend of alpaca and merino brings warmth, comfort, and a gentle marled effect to every stitch.

PATTERN NOTES
This hat is worked from the bottom up using mosaic crochet to achieve a brioche look. You will use one color at a time and alternate between post stitches and chains. The chains do count as a stitch in each round’s stitch count and instructions. Always work in front of chains when making post stitches.

This pattern uses U.S. crochet terminology.

Maize is available as part of the e-book Farmers Market and as an individual pattern on Ravelry.
