"Trena" Hat - knitting pattern for fingering weight yarn

I really love to knit with fingering and sock yarn, especially items which are not socks. I wanted to use a nice braid in a hat, without seeing it straight on my head at the end. In combination with a nice handdyed yarn and a seed stitch, „Trena“ was born. “Trena” is the catalan word for “braid” and shows my love for the spanish island Ibiza, where people speak a catalan dialect. The pattern is made for advanced beginners, who are not afraid of knitting complex braids. The braids in this patterns are made with an “in-between” purl stitch, to define the different strands of the braid.
