Two Island Lake Hat Knitting Pattern

This hat is named after one of my favorite camping
spots. The hat has a cozy fixed double brim and uses
two strands of worsted held together throughout the
pattern.

At the start of my fiber journey, I collected tons of
affordable acrylic worsted weight yarns in many
colors. I was sure I was going to crochet a million
blankets, but I ended up with lots of yarn left. I
challenged myself to knit with as much of it as I
could. I wrote this pattern years ago as a way to play
with marling two colors together - although the hat
can be knit with two strands of the same color as
well.

Shown in Knitting For Olive Heavy Merino (held with mohair),
Caron “One Pound’” Worsted Weight Acrylic, Vanna’s
Choice, Red Heart With Love, among others.
The pattern is written for one size with simple
suggestions to adapt it to just about any size.

Uses US 11.0 - 8.0mm needles.
