I casted on 96 stitches. This pattern requires bulky weight. I can double up my yarn or use a worsted weight yarn and add stitches.

I decided to do a K1P1 rib for 2”

This pattern is a 6 stitch repeat. I will have 16 repeats.

For the crown:

There are 8 markers set up. Everyother round I will decrease. When I do the crown slip marker knit tog.

I am used to getting gauge and a well fitting cap by C/O 96 stitches. I was going to follow her bulky yarn then thought look at the chart and make it work for worsted weight yarn
