This adorable hat features a dinosaur chart that repeats 3 times throughout the hat. It is worked in the round, using the magic loop and stranded knitting technique.

With aran/bulky weight yarn, this hat is designed to fit an older child or adult, however, it can be scaled down to fit a smaller child with a lighter weight yarn and smaller needle size. Just be sure to check your gauge!

In order to achieve a tighter ribbing, I recommend going down one needle size during the ribbing rows.
