Gauge: 26 sts & 32 rounds = 10cm / 4” over stranded colourwork in the round on 3.5mm needles after blocking.
Needles: 2.75mm / US 2 circular needle, 40cm / 16” length
3.5mm / US 4 circular needle, 40cm / 16” length and needles suitable for working small circumferences in the round.
Always use a needle size that will result in the correct gauge after blocking.
Notions: 5 stitch markers (including one unique for beginning of round), tapestry needle, pompom maker (optional)
Notes: Orisoun is worked from the bottom up in the round. Two rows of the repeating colourwork motif are worked using ladderback jacquard. This method creates a mesh on the wrong side of the work that helps to manage tension over long gaps between colour changes and keeps the floats completely invisible from the right side. Lifted increases secure the bottom of the mesh just above the brim, and decreases are worked at the end of the colourwork section to complete the mesh.
