A Churchmouse Yarns and Teas Pattern - Boyfriend Watch Cap (PDF)
“Borrow it back. If you can.”
Worked in a heavy worsted-weight yarn, this cap is a quick knit, which is great because you’re bound to be asked for more. The ribbed cuff is nice and deep so you can fold it a long way up without the wrong side of the stockinette stitch crown showing. The three-part top decreases add a crisp detail. Rowan Felted Tweed Aran, with its rustic good looks and blend of wool, alpaca and viscose, knits up into a warm, cozy cap that drapes beautifully and wears well.
