Nightingale Hat

The code “NORICHAN” is provided to assist with financial accessibility. This code will reduce the cost of the pattern to $3.60.

Nightingale Hat is the perfect accessory to play matchy-matchy with your Nightingale Cardigan or Nightingale Pullover! Or if you’re not a garment maker, this hat is the perfect balance of keeping you engaged without requiring too much concentration.

It is worked from the bottom up, and inside out to reduce the amount of purling needed to be done. It actually looks great on both sides, so if you’re careful with weaving in ends, you can flip it inside out on different days!
