How to work the knitwear: Dimanche means Sunday in French — and this hat is meant for a pleasant Sunday knit. Believe it or not, you can finish it in about four hours.
The hat is worked from forehead to crown in ribbing. At the end, the hat is turned inside out so its beautiful decreases come to the fore. The brim is folded double, and you can start with either a long-tail cast-on or the wonderfully simple Italian cast-on. Give it a go!
Work the ribbing fairly tightly — with needles smaller than the recommended size — so that the basic rib stays snug even when stretched.
