Gro is a very warm hat intended for the coldest days and nights of winter. It has a notch in the brim, worn in the back, making the hat comfortable and allowing it to fit different head sizes. Hat is worked flat for the ribbing, and then worked bottom up in the round. Pattern requires the following skills: working ribbing, knitting in the round on circular and/or double pointed needles, increasing, decreasing, stranded color work, making a pom pom (optional).
Nordic motif was selected from the book: 150 Scandinavian Motifs: The Knitter's Directory by Mary Jane Mucklestone, published by
Interweave Press.
