Chris' Tread Hat

Taken from the book Within: Twisted Rib and Garter stitches combine in this cozy, textured topper. In super soft merino with a luxe faux fur pom pom, this hat will take you from a morning at the farmers' market to an evening by the campfire without a backward glance. With three sizes and a wide range of yarns to choose from (it looks just as good in regular worsted as it does in chainette), you just might find yourself making multiples.

Chris knit up the large version of this hat using Cascade Cloud, which is similar in construction and fiber to the yarn used in the book (Woolfolk Far).
