Stardew Hats Collection - Knitting Pattern PDF

Please note this is to purchase the pattern to knit the hats, not the hats themselves. Due to the nature of digital downloads, I cannot offer refunds.

All four patterns from the Stardew Hat Collection! These hats are inspired by the Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter seasons, and are adapted from the original sock designs.

When I learned I would get the chance to meet ConcernedApe at one of the Stardew Concerts, I knew I would want to bring him a gift to thank him for the positive impact his game has had on me! Instead of knitting him the socks, which I didn't want to chance wouldn't fit, I decided to turn the sock designs into hats. And because I can't do anything halfway, I decided to adapt all 4 hats and knit him the set. I'm delighted to also make these patterns available, as it has often been requested to turn the designs into hats. 

The hats have been updated with new colors and motifs, so they will be interesting to knit even if you've made the socks! These hats are not necessarily harder than the socks, but they are more complex! There are more 3 color rounds, and there are more colors to manage overall. Summer and Fall have rounds where you need to hold 4 colors at a time. There is also some duplicate stitch finishing to add additional details. If you are new to colorwork and feeling adventurous, dive in! If you’d like an easier time easing in, I recommend making at least one pair of the socks first. If you have already made one or more socks, you are well equipped to handle the hats - you can do it!

These patterns are also on Ravelry. Patterns have been tech edited - thank you to my tech editor, Heather Storta!

These are knitting patterns inspired by my love for Stardew Valley. While ConcernedApe is not affiliated with this project, I have permission from him to sell the patterns.

These hats are worked from the bottom up, starting with a 2x1 ribbed brim. The colorwork charts are worked for the main section, followed by the crown decreases. After blocking, duplicate stitch is used to add the finishing touches.
