Notes

Another Musselburgh hat + Newsprint cowl set
. also with fingerless mitts

CAST-ON
. KnitPink’s slow-mo Pinhole cast-on
… Quite fiddly on the dpn’s
… Knit a round/row after. I tighten with the tail, then slide the stitches to the right and knit straight across before moving them to the other dpn’s.
… … Doing the kfb’s right away - harder to get that b stitch.

CROWNS
. increase up to 144 sts (36 per dpn)
. in addition to the increases/decreases: 40 rounds

! Remember - the decrease crown is SSK-knit-K2tog for nicer looking lines. I got it wrong on my Tarte Mbgh and it isn’t as cool.

BRIM
. Midsection - folded
… 120 rounds
… I figure the hat is folded in half, so 12” = 6” which is folded again for the brim, so 3” brim which is a little more than the height of my ear.

. Helical
… stop 3 sts before next color
… a little looseness is fine with transition

Other version was 19.5” x 24.5” unblocked

Unblocked Dimensions
. Circumference: 19.5”
. Length: 25.5”

Blocked Dimensions
. Circumference: 20.25”
. Length: 26.5”

Wet-block on head form
. Conditioner soak softened it up a little. More halo and some expansion.

NEEDLES
. US 2
