This is an easy and enjoyable pattern to knit!

A form-fitted cap designed to use up your small scraps of yarn. Sizes range from XS to XL, fitting a wide range of people. Easy stranded knitting on the bottom makes a nice sturdy brim and no hats will look the same, as you are using scraps. The top is divided into 8 sections and uses k2tog and ssk to decrease.

Uses any worsted weight yarn as long as it is of similar weight and gauge can be achieved. Gauge is 5 stitches = 1 inch (2.5 cm) in stockinette, using size US6 (4mm) circular needle and dpns.

Amount of yarn needed for each size is indicated in grams. 65 to 85 grams of worsted weight yarn; the lower number for XS and the larger number for XL, are required.
