This slightly slouchy cap is the perfect match for the Color Ridge Cowl. Also a delightfully quick to create accessory, the alternating color ridges add just the right amount of panache to this otherwise simple knit.

Loom: Adjustable Hat Loom set to large size of 42 pegs: 2 rounded pieces + 4 peg connectors + 2 longest loom rails, with pegs in every other hole for a 3/4” gauge. The loom is enlarged mid-project to a total of 48 pegs, with the added 2 peg connectors + 2 smallest rails.

Yarn: Approx 60 yards bulky #5 weight yarn, Loops & Threads Charisma, 100% acrylic in both Stormy and Holiday were used in sample (Color Ridge Cowl & Cap can both be made with these two skeins), plus an added approx. 50 yards of Loops & Threads Woolike Chunky, 85% acrylic and 15% nylon in Cool Gray was also+ used in sample.

Notions: Six stitch markers, one removable stitch marker, knit hook, tapestry needle, 6mm crochet hook
