Corrugated Hat

This hat has rings of personality. It would look great with the tubed cowl. This Lion Brand Yarn pattern would knit up great with multi-colored yarn.

SIZE: One Size

Finished Circumference 18 in. (45.5 cm), will stretch to fit a range of sizes.

MATERIALS

• 860-108 Lion Brand Vanna's Choice Yarn: Dusty Blue 1 Ball

•  Double-Pointed Needles - Size 9

• Circular Knitting Needles 16 inches Size 9

• Split Ring Stitch Markers

• Pom pom Maker

• Large-Eye Blunt Needles

GAUGE:

16 sts = about 4 in. (10 cm) in pattern. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the

pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try

using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

NOTES:

1. Hat is worked from lower edge up to crown (top of Hat).

2. Hat is worked in the round, beg with a circular needle, then changing to double-pointed needles when sts have been decreased.

3. If you prefer, the entire Hat can be worked on double-pointed needles.
