Garter stitch is the first basic knitting stitch that any knitter learns. It also happens to be simple and beautiful. To prove it, we’ve collected a handful of simple knitting patterns for your knitting pleasure.

Sorry, I do not. You might try doing a pattern search with those or similar keywords. I wish you luck!
I am looking for a ladies knitted hat pattern, using double knit wool , rib and stocking stitch on 2 needles.Really difficult to find
Hi Jan! Here's a link for a search I did for you on Ravelry. I've adjusted the parameters to search for what you asked so these will contain all or some of your requirements. You can adjust the parameters to paid patterns if you like.
If these don't suit you because of stitch texture or design, you can always modify the pattern by switching to stockinette instead. In other words, find a starting point, then make it your own. Good luck!
