Notes

Found a hat I had been experimenting with in about 2016 and decided to resurrect it. Luckily I had kept my instructions.

Original yarn was 55g Cascade 220, size 7 needles
18 sts/36 rows/4” over unblocked garter st
Next was 45g Swish DK with size 6
20 sts/40 rows/4”
Last was Galileo Luster sport and Wool of Andes ash sport with size 5
22 sts/44 rows /4”

3 different sizes by changing yarn and needle size.
