Calls for 1oz each of seven (7) colors of size 8 beads.
Also uses larger oblong beads and caps to make an acorn tassel.

Uses pre-strung bead knitting technique.

Gauge given in the 2003 edition of the book is 21 stitches x 25 rows = 1” in plaited stockinette, however this is likely a mistake as it would yield a hat that is 11” around.
