This simple lace hat is a quick, fun knit that will allow you to use that gorgeous skein of yarn you’ve been saving!  It looks great knit up in a speckly, tonal or variegated color so there are a lot of options!  It’s excellent for a newbie lace knitter but it’s definitely not boring for an experienced lace knitter.  The best part is that you can use a skein of DK weight yarn OR fingering weight yarn held double. This adult hat is sized for a not too tight fit. The Linger Hat pattern is charted AND contains written directions.
