What you need to know

Master rib in Susie Johns’ sweet design!

Little Rosie is all set for the cold weather with her remarkably cute hat! It’s a fabulous pattern that’s really simple to make, using just knit and purl stitches. It is actually worked as a rectangle without any increasing or decreasing at all. Rib is a very stretchy stitch that pulls in your work, while stocking stitch is more relaxed. That means rows with a bigger stocking stitch section will look wider than rows with more rib and that’s what creates the shape of the hat. Ingenious!
