MATERIALS: For this delightful project, you will need approximately 66 - 131 yards (60 – 120 meters) of sport weight yarn. We recommend using Baby Akwool, a soft blend consisting of 30% Wool and 70% Acrylic, with a generous length of 150 meters per 50 grams. This yarn is perfect for keeping tiny heads warm and stylish!
NEEDLE REQUIREMENTS: To bring your hat to life, you will need a US 3 (3.5 mm) circular needle with a minimum length of 20 inches, suitable for magic loop techniques. This allows you to create stitches seamlessly and efficiently.
NOTIONS: Don't forget essential knitting notions such as one stitch marker and a tapestry needle to finish off your project neatly!
GAUGE: Ensure your hat fits perfectly by achieving a gauge of 26 stitches x 32 rows in a 4” x 4” stockinette stitch. Proper gauge is key to creating a hat that maintains its shape and size through wear and wash.
