The simplest of all Hat shapes, the square top Hat is an easy introduction to sideways Hat knitting and a chance to experiment with working on the bias. Alternative finishing options give you the choice of a flat, 3- or 4-point crown.

Available as a single pattern or as part of the Get Garter collection.

Get Garter is an entry-level guide to sideways Hat knitting.

Six different constructions are explained, supplemented with thorough explanations of the underlying structure and maths, empowering you to venture beyond the pattern and create your own unique Hats.
