Notes

I made this to donate to Halos of Hope. A charity that distributes chemo caps to people undergoing chemotherapy.

Frogged the beginning because it was too pointy. It turns out that I wasn’t slipping the stitches at the beginning of the rows. Also, I was tugging the yarn at the beginning of the even rows to tighten the i-cord edge.

Starting over with slipped stitches and relaxed i-cord stitches. This time the hat was much flatter. I ended up repeating 1f-6f 40 times to get the opening small enough.
