This fun Rib Zag Hat knitting pattern has a cute zig zag ribbed brim but is a quick and easy pattern to knit for anyone!
The Rib Zag Hat knitting pattern is seriously the most fun pattern to knit.
It’s really easy but I think that zig zag brim over the ribbing is really fun and cool looking. I know we all get bored knitting the same kinds of hats over and over again. And I love that this one is different!
I also love this yarn. Can we talk about Malabrigo worsted for a minute?
You guys, I used to think I couldn’t wear wool. I stuck with alpaca or bamboo or cotton. But wool always always felt scratchy if it was anywhere near my neck, or wrists. Which is kind of a problem if you love to knit wrist warmers and scarves! (Spoiler alert: turns out I was just trying cheap wool yarn!)
The other part to this problem is that when I started knitting more often I was a broke grad student. And then I had an entry level job and student loans. So nice yarn stores were a place I window shopped but didn’t spend too much time in because I didn’t want to torture myself.
But now I’m an actual grownup. I mean, sort of? I have a paying job, life insurance and I recently researched, purchased, and was excited about a new dishwasher, so that makes me a bonafide adult, right?
Anyway, I went to a fancy yarn store maybe two years ago, I squeezed some Malabrigo worsted, and I fell in love.
I think when you look at my new Rib Zag hat knitting pattern you’ll understand. You can almost feel the softness just looking at it, and that beautiful hand-dyed color is to die for (dye for?). It’s the perfect yarn to show off a pattern and not overshadow it, but still be pretty on its own.
