⚓ You'll Also Need

Knitting Needles:

US 6 (4.0 mm) and US 7 (4.5 mm), or sizes needed to achieve gauge.

This hat is worked in the round. Depending on the size you're knitting, you'll need:

• Teen through Adult XL: 16" (40 cm) circular needles in both sizes, plus DPNs or a long circular needle for Magic Loop in the larger size to work the small circumference.

• Baby and Child: DPNs or long circular needles for Magic Loop in both sizes, since these hats are too small for 16" circular needles. You may also begin with 9" or 12" circulars if preferred.

Notions:

• 6 to 16 stitch markers, depending on hat size and personal preference, including one distinctive marker for the beginning of the round (BOR)

• Tapestry needle for weaving in ends

Knitting needles and notions are not included in the kit.

⚓ Care

Machine wash gentle in cold water or hand wash with a gentle wool wash. Lay flat to dry.
