Notes: Periphery is constructed from the brim to the crown in the round. The hat is knit long to allow for a folded brim. Knitter will be guided in working intarsia in the round. The twisted German cast-on is an extra stretchy cast on, videos demonstrating the cast on are readily accessible online.
