Notes

5.25mm hook
10sts x 80 rows brim. 21g used
Following instructions for “child” size. Hat will fit me. (I am using a bigger hook)

As written, the hat decreases to 45 stitches, then cinches the top. I don’t think I can get a good cinch (that won’t look hideous…)
I added a round of sc2tog so I only cinched 22 sts.

Before blocking: it’s kinda meh. Too tall and skinny, plus all scrunched up at the top. Hoping blocking will help.

145g for hat, 39g for PomPom.
Used 85mm clover PomPom maker
