The Kelbourne Woolens Despina Hat is the next design in the Year of DK Hats series, created by designer Kerry Bullock-Ozkan. This charming fall accessory features a fun-to-knit slipped stitch pattern that forms a beautiful diamond motif reminiscent of stained-glass windows, adding graphic texture and visual interest to the finished hat.

Worked in the round from the bottom up, the pattern combines approachable construction with a striking design. Both written and charted instructions are included, making it easy to follow the motif while enjoying the rhythm of the slipped stitches. The crown is finished with a playful pom pom and a signature Kelbourne Woolens leather tag for an extra polished touch.

The Despina Hat is a cozy and stylish project for welcoming cooler weather. Its eye-catching pattern makes it a fun addition to an autumn wardrobe and a great choice for knitters looking to explore color and texture while creating a practical handmade accessory.

A printed pattern is included in the kit. The digital pattern can be purchased separately on Ravelry or Kelbourne Woolens' website.
