Notes
Stranded colourwork technique is used for the hat’s motif, with each round carrying two strands at the same time. Keep floats in the back loose to maintain fabric elasticity and for floats longer then 5 stitches, twist yarns together in back of work. When breaking yarn, leave tails that are long enough for weaving in at the end. Read over pattern before you begin, highlighting all numbers that apply to the size you will be making.
