Warm DK yarn and cleverly shaped earflaps make Cornice the ideal choice for cold weather. Add a pompom and enjoy classic ski Hat styling with a fresh colour twist. Despite the elegant architectural design, Cornice uses only knit and purl stitches, plus simple increases and decreases, and is an accessible and rewarding knit. This pattern is available individually, or as part of the Painted Woolly Toppers eBook. Hat Description Cornice is an earflap Hat worked seamlessly from the bottom up. The earflaps are worked as part of the brim with a combination of increases and decreases that gives them a chevron style look. Both the earflaps and the brim are worked in garter stitch. The body of the Hat features small stripes of stocking stitch interspersed with purl ridges. The crown continues that pattern and decreases evenly for a classic beanie fit. The Hat is topped with a yarn pompom.
