    About

    My boss is a landlord and eventing manager. He has dreadlocks and long ones at that. He struggles to. Find suitable hats long enough in the body of the knit to carry not only the amount of hair but also it's weight. I used a felting yarn for this job to help reinforce the knit. So far it's worked well and he's ordered another.

    Pattern

    Notes: I simply extended the body of the hat to suit the length of dreadlock. I used a cable cast on to help secure the hat better. This is a Flat Knit hat.
