Description

The Homebody Hat is the 5th of 6 secret patterns in the Knitvent 2019 Collection

There’s a little bit of the homebody in every heart. Even a globe-trotting extrovert knows that the comforts of home are irreplaceable. Still, there are many different ways to be a home bird, and what that looks like in your life is as personal as your fingerprints. Is it a slow and solitary day where you dabble in your favourite pursuits for hours on end? Is it a big, noisy, delicious feast with a boisterous crew of loved ones trading jokes and stories over five different kinds of homemade pie? Maybe it’s just a stolen moment to yourself, between one happening and the next, where you catch your breath, look around, and know that you are exactly where you belong.

The Homebody Hat is a companion to the Homebody socks: they share the same lovely mock cable details and ribbing, and they will work together to keep you or your favourite person warm literally from head to toe. This is a slightly slouchy hat with a relaxed fit, knit from warm DK weight yarn, which means it works up fast and is also a brilliant last-minute project. With four sizes to choose from, it will look great on just about everyone you know.
