large range of sizes; it offers a choice of a plain ribbed EoR end of round
or a double-sided cable fold-over brim. Having the K/k knit
cable ribbing double-sided gives the wearer the

Needle Notes RN Right Needle

short circular needle and a set of DPN, for knitting ssk [slip 1 knitwise] twice, slip 2 to LN
hats in the round, a variety of methods may be used: and knit those two sts together

DIRECTIONS
Designer Note: For these hats, I like to use the Estonian Cast On – see a picture tutorial here on our
Shifting Stitches blog.

FOR BOTH MODELS:


Using a stretchy Cast On of your choice and circular needle, CO 120 sts.

Place an End of Round (EoR) marker. Join in the round being careful that the cast on stitches are
not twisted.
