Happy Black Friday?!?
Welcome to my Black Friday Boycott! I’m not buying things today. I’m not shopping sales. I’m not looking for deals. No…I’m giving stuff away!
It’s Free Pattern Friday! The Dude Edition.
If you’ve always wanted to knit a Dude sweater but don’t have the persistence to finish such a grand undertaking, have I got the hat for you!
Bring cult classic, The Big Lebowski to your wardrobe this winter with a super soft hat, inspired by The Dude (El Duderino, if you aren’t into the whole brevity thing) himself. Knit from a super soft baby alpaca, this hat is a reproduction of the sweater worn by The Dude in the film. (If you haven’t seen it, google will tell you all about it!)
Happy Free Pattern Friday! I hope you get to enjoy a few quiet moments knitting this weekend, and throughout the holiday season.
If you happen to knit this hat, I’d love to hear about it! I haven’t put it on Ravelry yet but you can browse my individual project pages here and here. Pattern feedback is always welcome!
Love the hat and if I was any better at that technique I’d cast on right away. Might be a good hat to practice on for next Christmas

Wonderful idea to give away instead of shop :)

Thanks so much for this pattern–I’m using just the brim for a different hat. On the underside of the brim, I’m getting the purl side on the outside, so that the brim has knit on top and purl on bottom. Is that right, or should it be knit on both sides? Thanks!

Your instinct that something was out of whack is correct. It should be knit on both sides. The purl sides should be folded together.
