A highly textured and soothing knitting pattern for a hat in four sizes

Gingersnap Hat by Lauren Rad

This pattern includes a second PDF version that is formatted for knitters with low vision. It has black text, size 22 or larger text in a sans serif font, no italics, no columns, and fully-written directions. The chart is still included but is not needed to work the pattern.

 “I love the spice of a gingersnap. It’s a bright, sharp jolt to the senses, filled with energy and zest. They’re best in fall and winter, I think, when the quiet slowness of the outside world starts to turn me into a hibernating bear. Then the gingersnap’s bit of spice will give me a little kick, and off I go again.

This hat pattern is one of my spicier patterns to date, but I promise, it’s still a pretty mellow knit! It has an all-over texture that repeats every six rounds and is highly memorizable—still perfect for knitflixing or relaxing, but with an appearance that says otherwise. I’m hoping a new hat with a fun texture will help you enjoy the outside world, even as the weather cools down here in the Northern Hemisphere. SIZES: S, M, L, XL”
