Crafted from DK supersoft merino yarn, this pattern promises a delightful winter knitting experience that you will cherish.

**Skill Level**: Easy — great for beginners and seasoned knitters who enjoy a calming project.

**Recommended Yarn**: For the best results, we recommend using Patons Merino Extrafine DK, made from 100% Virgin Merino wool for added softness and warmth.

**Needle Size**: The hat is knit in the round using a magic loop method, requiring 3.5mm and 4mm circular needles. Alternatively, follow the instructions for the knitted flat version if you prefer that technique.

**Gauge**: Ensure your project turns out perfectly by achieving a gauge of 10x10cm = 22 stitches x 30 rows in stocking stitch on 4mm needles.

**Yardage**: For the baby sizes, just one 50g ball (120m or 131yds) of yarn is sufficient. For the child and adult sizes, you will need a total of 100g (or 2x50g balls). This ensures plenty of yarn for a beautifully knitted hat that is warm and inviting.

**Notions**: Gather your essential knitting tools, including a darning needle for weaving in ends, a tape measure to check your gauge, scissors for any snips needed, and a stitch marker to track your pattern.

**Available Sizes**: This knitting pattern accommodates a variety of sizes, including 0-3 months, 3-6 months, 6-12 months, 12-24 months, Child Small, Child Large, and Adult. No matter who you're knitting for, there's a size to suit everyone.
