Materials (from the pattern):


“Any yarn. Worsted weight or thicker is recommended and you can use a double strand if desired. Thicker yarn will make a thicker fabric that will hold its shape better. It’s impossible to say exactly how much you’ll need, because it depends on what weight yarn you use and how big you make the hat. Start with about 8 oz (228 gr) and you shouldn’t run out!”

Needles (from the pattern):


“Set of 4 or 5 double pointed needles, a 16” long circular needle (optional), and a 24” circular needle. For a soft floppy hat, use the needle size you normally would with this yarn to make a hat or a sweater. For a hat that holds its shape better, use 1 to 3 needle sizes smaller.”
