Good Gossip begins with a provisional cast on. After the stranded ribbing is complete, the brim is bound off with an i-cord bind-off. This is optional and a link for an i-cord cast-on is provided.
The main part of the body is knit with two colour stranded knitting. There are long stretches of a single colour, so catching floats is recommended.

The pattern comes in S, M, L. Small will fit both a very small adult head size or a child.
