This knitting pattern is designed for the confident knitter and requires skills such as knitting in the round, basic knit and purl techniques, as well as the ability to knit from a chart. To ensure your project turns out beautifully, maintain a gauge of 19 stitches and 26 rows over 4 inches (10 cm).

When it comes to materials, you will need worsted weight yarn with approximately 115-175 yards (105-160 meters) for your project. The samples for this pattern are knit using Patons Classic Worsted yarn. You will also require US 8 (5 mm) 16-inch circular needles and double-pointed needles (dpns) for finishing touches. Don't forget essential notions such as a yarn needle and a stitch marker to help keep your knitting organized and enjoyable.

So, gather your favorite worsted weight yarn and embark on this fun and rewarding knitting adventure. Not only will you create a charming hat, but you’ll also have a fantastic piece to showcase your knitting expertise. Happy knitting!
