Sullivan
In early Autumn, brilliant yellow foliage begins to emerge from the thicket of green blanketing the forest. A breeze begins to rustle through the treetops. Evenings emerge earlier – with air both crisp and cool. The turning seasons begin to nudge you, and there is no better time for knitting. Sullivan is a hat inspired by the transition from summer to fall. Twisted ribbing coupled with graphic colorwork make this accessory one you’ll grab again and again.

Flying Fibers Yarn Company Yorkshire Medley (50% Wensleydale wool, 50% Blue Faced Leicester Wool; ~262 yds/100g)

NEEDLES

(B) US Size 5 (3.75 mm) 16” circular
NOTIONS
Tapestry needle, four stitch markers (note: I recommend using one unique marker to denote the beginning of each round)
GAUGE
26 sts x 28 rnds = 4” / 10 cm in Broken Diamonds pattern with larger needle
Always use the needle size that results in the correct gauge. As this project is knit in the round, the gauge swatch should also be knit in the round. Gently wash and block your swatch before measuring.
CONSTRUCTION NOTES
Sullivan is worked in the round from the bottom up. I recommend using stitch markers to keep track of pattern repeats. When decreasing for the crown, change to your preferred method for small circumference knitting when there are too few stitches to fit comfortably on the 16” circular.
