Yarn Details: For this project, we recommend using Stone Wool Cormo Worsted, made from 100% American Cormo wool, which provides a cozy warmth with a beautiful texture. You'll need 1 (1, 2) skein(s) in karst 01, which yields 200 yards [183 m] / 100 g, or approximately 165 (185, 205) yards / 151 (169, 187) m of any standard worsted weight yarn to achieve the desired look and feel.
Recommended Needles: To create your Crosscut Hat, gather your knitting supplies, including US Size 5 (3.75 mm) and US Size 7 (4.5 mm) 16" / 40 cm circular needles. Additionally, US Size 7 (4.5 mm) double-pointed needles (dpns) or the size needed to obtain gauge are essential for the finishing touches on this knit hat.
Gauge Information: Achieve the perfect fit by ensuring your gauge is 20 stitches and 28 rounds = 4" / 10 cm in stockinette stitch (St st). Proper gauge is crucial for the overall look and comfort of your finished Crosscut Hat.
