Free Pattern: Monday Night Hat



I used to spend every Monday night listening to live jazz at a local pizza pub. I always brought along my yarn and needles. One Monday night I decided to improvise with my knitting and switch from English to Continental style. I created this simple hat as a way to practice Continental style knitting. This is the perfect pattern for a beginner, or a beginner to a new concept.
