THE FRESNO HAT & SCARF

The pattern is written for a DK weight yarn.

The Fresno Hat is a top down knit.

The hat has negative ease. It means that your finished hat measures smaller than your head circumference.

The Fresno Scarf is worked in the round as a long tube.

SIZE
SCARF: one size 24 cm x 195 cm

HAT: 1 (2)
to fit the head circumference of 52-57 (58-62) cm

Because of the cable repeats, the measurements grow rapidly between sizes. The pattern is written for one size. However, there are two gauge options: size 1 and size 2 to offer two finished sizes. They both follow the same instructions but the final measurements are different.

YARN
SCARF: 375g of CARDIFF Cashmere Classic 25g/112m

HAT: 75 (75) g of CARDIFF Cashmere Classic 25g/112m
Some testers successfully completed the project with just 2 balls of CARDIFF CASHMERE CLASSIC.
