Set yourself on flirty mode with this hat! It’s so easy to be cute wearing it!
The hat is worked in the round, bottom-up, starting with half-twisted ribbing 2х2, decorated with arans in the body. The hat has nominal front and back sides.The ears are formed by decreasing the middle part of the both sides of the hat. The top is joined by 3-needle BO. There are 2 sizes (Adult 1, Adult 2) proposed. The pattern is very friendly to beginners; it contains clear and full instructions and links to captioned video tutorials.

Meterage/yardage:
Adult 1: 62 gr/2.2 oz 119 m/130 yds
Adult 2: 76 gr/2.7 oz 146 m/160 yds

Gauge:
23.8 stitches and 27 rounds in 10 cm/24.2 stitches and 27.5 rounds in 4’’ in the pattern of chart А in the round with needles 5 mm/US8/UK6 after blocking

Note: Why is my gauge so precise?
I believe that the most accurate method to determine the gauge is to measure the whole length and width of the blocked swatch and divide each value accordingly to the amount of the stitches and rows/rounds that you made to create your swatch. In this case you will get fractions. Rounding these fractions to smaller or bigger whole numbers will lead to inaccurate measurements of the finished object. Only the sum of all the stitches and rows/rounds used to make an object could be rounded to maximum half of the whole number.
