Folks a few days ago (16th), you saw some hats...lots of knitting ones from Barbie T and her chapter in Florida ( ). I know many of you a pattern very similar if not this one and I wanted to post it here (as well as in the hat section...see hat tab at the top of the blog).
It's such a versatile pattern good for many sized heads due to it's stretch. Geri, another lady in the group provided the pattern for me in an email.
Adult's cast on 96, teens cast on 68.
K2, P2 across row
knit above rib pattern for 9 1/2 inches
begin decrease with K2tog across row
Purl next row
Repeat last 2 rows (the decrease rows) 3 x......Bind Off leaving enough yarn to stitch up your side seam.
Add topper if you wish, though it's not necessary; and probably preferred for most adult hats, certainly plain is best for the men folk.
All donations regardless of size and number are valued. All donations are appreciated, and all donations keep someone warm. We help, one stitch at a time. YOU truly DO make a difference. THANK YOU!
