Notes

So, I made up this pattern to show off my hand-dyed yarn “Starburst,” which is very colorful; I wanted something simple to show off the color variation.

I looked up ‘worsted weight slouchy’ to see if there were any hits - I decided I would make a pattern if there weren’t any! Then, I found this one! They’re very similar, so I will just tuck my project under this pattern title.

I hope you like my hat!

EDITS:
- - I worked with sz 8 needles.

  1. I casted on 81 and did 1x1 ribbing for 2 inches.
  2. increased to 109 sts over the course of two rows by doing the following: a after the 2 inches of 1x1 ribbing, I increased evenly across the whole next row, doing kfb. I increased evenly 14 stitches in each row. b Knitted next row. c Increased 14 stitches in the same way as row 1, so a normal looking (but hardly noticeable) pattern from the kfb.
