From the designer: I was planning a workshop on entrelac knitting and started playing around with different ideas. This hat was one of the results. It is shaped at the crown by using progressively smaller blocks.

This is a good beginner project for those new to entrelac knitting. To avoid having those awkward triangles at the end of rows I have designed it to use circular needles and dpns. With entrelac you can sometimes use circular needles with a smallish number of sts where ordinary knitting would not work. I started on a 16” circ and changed to dpns only when it was necessary.
