Cottonwood hat

The Cottonwood hat features a beautiful cottonwood leaves pattern evenly spaced around the lower part of hat just above the ribbed edge. The hat is worked from the brim up in the round with an easy stranded knitting method, done with two contrasting colors. The crown features evenly spaced spiral decreases.
The pattern is fully written, charted and also offers a how to catch the floats in the back Video Link.
