There Goes the Snow Plow! Hat Pattern (PDF) - Knitting Pattern by Phibersmith Designs

Also available as a kit

It’s that magical time of year again! The heavens open and clouds of icy flakes settle in great heaps in the trees, on your roof, on your car, and of course, in your driveway. Shovel in hand, you painstakingly shift it out of the way. Your car is no longer imprisoned, the way is clear!

… And then, there goes the snow plow…

Oh well, at least one small person was excited to see it go by.

This hat has a hemmed brim, so the ears are covered by a double-thickness of fabric for extra warmth. The tassel cord is made with square knots for a polished finish.

Hat takes 2 skeins main colour (bg) and 1 skein complementary colour (snow plows).

Pattern includes charts for colourwork and complete written instructions, as well as links to tutorials in the “Resources” section.
