• DESCRIPTION

The hat is easy to make, with advanced beginner knitters in mind.

Using knit and purl stitches, you will create ribbing, learn to knit in the round and it will also introduce you to decreasing and shaping.

This hat will be super cozy to wear in the cold weather.

Yarn

1 skein of Lion Brand Hometown USA Yarn in Chicago Charcoal.

1 skein of Lion Brand Hometown USA Yarn in Neon Pink.

Super bulky weight – 106 yards.

Needles

Set of 10.00mm (US 15) 16″ circular knitting needles.

Please note - you may have to change your needles for the decreases of the hat if working on the circulars becomes too tight.

This would mean using a set of size 10mm double-pointed needles (DPNs).

If you do not have those, you could use a 60cm/24” cable and use the magic loop technique.
