This listing is for the original Olann knitting pattern for the Roulé Hat, designed in collaboration with @mergegoods and @cristinagareau. This knitting pattern was created and written by Olann. Note that the Roulé Sweater Knitting Pattern is also available to purchase.

Roulé in French means “rolled”. This design is an ode to softness, to roundness, to turning inwards for reflection and embracing life in all its curvature.

The Roulé Hat is knit as a long tube, and is designed to be rolled up to your desired length. It is shaped with decreases to form the crown of the head, and topped with an I-cord nib, for extra pizzazz.
