Kobuk Hat

The Kobuk Hat is one of our favorite shop samples - it's a little nugget of opportunity to build your knitting skills. It features a twisted rib brim and has little baby cable stitches that form the pattern peaks...plus sweet little bobbles sprinkled throughout the hat. Our sample is worked holding one strand of Camellia Fiber Co Merino Sport along with one strand of Camellia Mohair + Silk, which creates the dreamiest fabric.

Silbia, the owner and dyer behind Nashville-based Camellia Fiber Co, just dropped off a new batch of both yarns this past week -- all of your favorite colors plus two new ones: Blue Poppy and Ochre. We already have two samples of this little gem, but that isn't going to stop us from making yet another one. We just have to decide on which color!

 

Shop Camellia Sport here and Camellia Mohair + Silk here; you'll need one skein of each to complete the project. The Kobuk Hat pattern can be purchased directly from Ravelry here.
