Notes

Ravellenics 2022 Hat Halfpipe Event!
A reflective hat!
Essential for nighttime competition!
Rav on!

Part of a baby gift package.

Made in the round, brim, all reflective yarn, then, alternating reflective yarn one row, regular yarn, the next. In this way, the inside of the hat will have the feel warm. The reflective yarn feels somewhat cold to the touch.

My gauge was bigger and I didn’t want to go to a smaller needle. My fabric is very good with the US 9, 13 st / 4”.
Adjusted cast on accordingly.
CO 70.

It’s a little big because my swatch gauge was a little tighter than actual, in the round.
Will CO 60 next time.
