More Knit Hat Ideas for Science Marches

February 22, 2017 by Sarah White

hat knitting patterns for the science marchesEarlier this month I told you about the brain hat, an early contender for the pattern to knit for the upcoming marches for science. It’s a great hat, but all that I-cord is, frankly, pretty boring and takes a long time to knit.

Here are a couple of other options for science march knitting, if you’re so inclined. Or they’re just cool hats for any occasion.

ChemKnits added a little helix cable to the traditional pussyhat pattern to make a GENEie Pussyhat. So cute!

And then there’s the Resistor hat from Craftimism, symbolizing resistors used in electronics to slow down an electric current.

Either of these would be awesome to knit for geeky friends or yourself to wear any time of year.

    I find the term for the hat to be very offensive. If you didn’t like hearing President Trump saying it on tape from 10+ years ago, why do you use the term? Doesn’t it give others the impression that all women are ok with anyone using this term? I am offended.

    Hi Sarah, I wanted to make a correction to your post. Knithacker shared my GENEie Pussyhat design but ChemKnits is the designer of the GENEie series. I’m really happy that you enjoy the design! I’ve included the link to the GENEie Pussyhat Knitting pattern on my name in this comment.

    So sorry about that! It’s fixed now.

    Hello! Thank you so much for featuring my design (I am Heidi from Craftimism with the Resistor Hat design). I wanted to tell you about the new March for Science Official Crafting group on facebook. (https://www.facebook.com/groups/295161777566144/) We are encouraging any blue or green hat for the march and are trying to mobilize knitters to make hats. 🙂 We have a range of suggested designs from beginner to more advanced but we should all look unified with green or blue. We are also set up to take handmade hat donations for the march in D.C. through projectthinkingcap.org. We’d love any publicity you could give us! Thanks again for featuring my hat!

    Mary M, the problem isn’t with Trump using the word, it’s with him grabbing them without permission. It’s called assault and not only is it offensive but it’s also illegal.

Knitting Pattern Review: Sabai Top by PaulaStrickt

Trending now — and for good reason!

Alright fellow knitters, if you’ve been scrolling through Instagram or Pinterest lately, you’ve probably spotted the Sabai Top popping up everywhere. And let me tell you — the hype is totally justified. This lightweight, drapey top by PaulaStrickt has quickly become a must-knit, and it’s easy to see why.

The Sabai Top has that magical mix of style and simplicity. With its elegant A-line shape, soft rolled neckline, and relaxed fit, it flatters every body and suits just about every wardrobe. It’s knit top-down in the round, which means no seams (yes please!), and it flows beautifully thanks to its clever shaping.

It’s ideal for warmer weather and perfect for layering. I’ve seen it styled casually over jeans or thrown over a sundress, and honestly? It looks stunning every single time. That easy, wearable style is what’s made this one take off in the knitting world right now.

PaulaStrickt’s instructions are beautifully laid out, with both English and German versions included. It’s written with clarity and care, and includes helpful photos throughout. I’d say it’s best for confident beginners and up — if you’re comfortable knitting in the round and shaping, you’ll be right at home.

The sizing is generous and inclusive, and it’s so adaptable with different fibres. Linen, cotton, bamboo blends — they all shine in this pattern. I’ve cast on with a blush cotton-linen from my stash, and it’s knitting up like a dream.

This is one of those patterns you just know you’ll make more than once. The fit, the drape, the ease… it’s everything I want in a handmade top. No wonder it’s trending — it’s the kind of timeless knit that never really goes out of style.
