Dimensions & Measurements:
This pattern is made in an adult size for 18-20” circumference, it can be made larger by adding additional increased rows or starting with more stitches at Round 1 or 4. Keep an even number as the Puff and Star rows are done in multiples of 2.
To make this pattern smaller, simply remove the decreases in Rounds 9 & 10 in multiples of 2 for a child’s size hat.
Notes:
This pattern is written in US terms and Imperial measurements.
The hat is constructed from the top down, in rounds, finished with a ribbed brim. There are instructions to create the hat off of a hair-tie so that there will be a hole for a ponytail, as well as instructions for a closed top beanie for traditional look.
The ch does not count as a stitch unless otherwise noted.
When turning from the WS to the RS you will skip the first st, and place a st at the base of the ch1 at the end of the Round to help keep your seam straight.
When pattern calls to work in rounds, work the round as instructed.
You do not turn after every round, only turn when the pattern instructs you to do so.
