Worthy of Note
This is a simple hat, and a useful swatch for knitting the Cumberland Falls sweater! Using the same needles sizes, you can familiarize yourself with the stitch patterns and rhythm while also checking your gauge in the round. It’s also a great way to try out your color combinations, if you’re unsure of how it will look.
