Frosty chunky hat knitting pattern:

Using long tail method cast on 44 stitches or any other number divisible by 4. Join to knit in the round being careful not to twist stitches. Place marker. Rib k2, p2 for 6 rounds.

Knitting body of the chunky hat:

Rounds 1-2: [k2, p2] – repeat till the end of round.

Rounds 3-4: [p2, k2] – repeat till the end of round.

Repeat Rounds 1- 4 until hat measures 18-19 cm from the edge. At the end I have finished with Round 1 and 2.

Shaping crown of the chunky hat:

Round 1: [p2tog, k2tog] – repeat till the end of round. When you are knitting k2tog, to make this decrease smoother, I turned two next stitches and instead of k2tog I have done skpo. Check video tutorial. If you find it complicated, proceed with k2tog.

Round 2: [p1, k1] – repeat till the end of round.

Round 3: [k2tog] – repeat till the end of round.

Round 4: knit all stitches around. 

Cut yarn leaving 10-15 cm tail. Use hook or tapestry needle to pull yarn tail through the remaining 11 stitches. Pull tight to close the hole. Weave in ends.

One of the photos with the Frosty Chunky Knit Hat Pattern shows some matching mittens. Can you tell me where I can get the pattern for those mittens? Thank you.

How do you get the hat to be narrower at the rim and bulge in the body? Whenever I knit hats they are always just straight up and down. Thank you.

Try then using smaller knitting needles for the brim (7-8 mm for ex), it might help
