Continuing on the twisted rib theme, the Ginger Hat utilizes a twisted rib detail that adds subtle texture and helps shape the bottom of the beret as it meets the bottom gathered brim. Knit from the top down, increases are added in eight sections every other row. This hat knits up beautifully in solid or heather yarns.
