Kehinde Hat Kit

The Kehinde Hat by Sylvia Watts-Cherry is a bold and beautiful hat pattern with a slouchy fit. It is a fantastic way to use up leftover yarn from the matching Kehinde Cardigan.

The hat is knitted in the round from the bottom to the top. The 2-colour textured pattern is achieved by slipping stitches.

Kehinde is part of the Better Together collection, six stunning knitting pattern designs from three fabulous knitwear designers.
