Aliana Slouch Knitting Pattern - 4Ply (HC36)
A beautifully textured slouchy hat featuring elegant rows of eyelets and diamond lace motifs. Finished with a playful pompom, this lightweight beanie offers a relaxed silhouette that's perfect for everyday wear while showcasing the beauty of hand-dyed yarns.
The pattern includes two construction options to suit your preferred knitting style. Choose to knit the hat flat on straight needles with a seam, or seamlessly in the round using double-pointed needles. The combination of lace texture and simple shaping creates an enjoyable project with a polished finish.
Photographed in Handdyed 4 Ply, a soft fingering weight yarn that highlights the lace pattern and subtle colour variations beautifully.
