Notes

I designed this folded brim (double brim) hat for Hal. I’ll probably continue to refine the pattern. This was the first attempt.

I did a crocheted provisional cast on, 72 stitches
Attached main yarn and knit around and joined
knit not quite 6 inches, then folded the brim and attached the cast on to the working stitches, per Andrea Mowry video. https://youtu.be/etIyi8sxMkA?si=f6-U5KHGB1xUN9fY

I put the slip knot end of the provisional cast on at the wrong side. I was following Very Pink video for that, but she goes a different direction with it and I didn’t realize that for what I was doing I need to have the non-slip knot side matching up to where I joined yarn to knit.

Kept knitting to 6 inches long.
