Notes

Love,love,love
Bought this kit thru Jimmy Beans Wool
… the kit comes with 2 poms!

… my notes …

Cast on using Very Stretchy cast on (short version)

I knit the hat and frogged twice
Ended up changing to one cable repeat & purl sts

I love, love, love this yarn! heart
I had no problems finishing the hat with plenty of yarn to spare ~ and I can pull it down over my ears (that’s a plus!)
I highly recommend this kit!
I’m tempted to buy another!

Added notes
Followed others with needle sizes
I used 9’s to cast on
Only knit 5 rounds of rib
Changed to 11’s
Repeated a 6 round pattern…5x
The last cable round = decreases
Switched to size 9 needle for decrease section
………….. but with the amount of yarn I had remaining
I don’t think I needed to worry about switching
I tried the hat on as I knit the decreases
Sewed on the snap … will get pictures soon
