Plicate
\ˈplī-ˌkāt\
adjective
-having the surface thrown up into or marked with parallel ridges
This is a soft, light hat, perfect for spring and autumn (and for winter, for those of you who live somewhere that doesn’t get dreadfully cold).
It works up quickly in almost any heavy fingering, sport, or light dk yarn and is especially well suited for fuzzy yarns like alpaca or mohair blends.
The degree of crumple in the back can be altered to fit your taste, and the pattern includes detailed finishing instructions to make it easy to do.
The pattern is written for 5 sizes (and 3 gauges) and costs $4.50.
