Do Not Mock My Pro Con List Hat - Knitting Pattern

When I think of Rory Gilmore, it’s nearly impossible to not compare her to her mother, as they share so many traits. I see in Rory, Lorelai’s brazen independence and perseverance. I see Lorelai’s care and compassion for others. And yet, I see Rory’s passion in a new and different light, with a softer touch, and her own values and passions, and feel excited for the life of Rory that we have not yet seen.

This beginner friendly hat pattern captures everything we cherish about Rory Gilmore. It is soft and sophisticated, but strong, and full of interest for your eyes and your hands. Perfect for any head and any yarn combination – tonals, speckles, or variegated.

I used about 50g of my colorway “What She Tackles, She Conquers” and about 5g of a "Handsome Dan" mini skein held double. 100g of the main color and 20g of a mini should be more than enough for a men’s 10.5 sock at my gauge.

The sock is written on a Size 1 needle, although that could easily be adjusted to create the fabric you enjoy for your socks (keeping in mind that changing the needle will change the yardage needed). Additionally, the pattern is written for magic loop, but there is some information included for a 9” circular or DPN to knit in your preferred method.

The main body pattern is written for a multiple of 8, and the lace stitch can easily be adjusted with extra knit stitches on the sides of the panels, so it can be easily adjusted to fit your foot. If you need help adjusting your hat to a different size (for kiddos or bigger heads) I’m happy to help you figure out which size instructions to use. Just send me a message or email at thelittlewolfknits@gmail.com.

You will need yarn, a needle of choice, stitch marker (if not knitting magic loop), tapestry needle to close your toe, and any other sock notions you typically use.
