Size: This pattern is available in one versatile size, designed to fit most adult head circumferences of 54-56 cm (21-22 inches), making it a perfect gift or a delightful addition to your own wardrobe.
Yarn: You will need just 1 skein of MALABRIGO Rios, a luxurious yarn made from 100% Merino wool, offering 210 yards (100 grams) of softness and warmth. For those wishing to explore alternatives, suitable yarn substitutes include MADELINETOSH Vintage, MADELINETOSH Pashmina Worsted, and MADELINETOSH 80/10/10 Worsted MCN, providing you the flexibility to choose your preferred fiber.
Needles: To create the Sand Bank Hat, you'll need a 3.50 mm (US #4) circular needle (at least 60 cm / 24 inches long) or double-pointed needles (dpns) for the initial sections, as well as a 4.50 mm (US #7) circular needle (also at least 60 cm / 24 inches long) and dpns for the remainder. Be sure to use the appropriate needle size to achieve the correct gauge for your project.
Other Supplies: Don't forget to have a stitch marker handy, along with a tapestry needle for smooth weaving of ends after finishing your hat. These small tools can make a huge difference in your knitting experience.
Gauge: Achieving the right gauge is essential for this pattern. Aim for 18 stitches and 24 rows in 10 cm (4 inches) in Stockinette stitch when worked in the round with the 4.50 mm (US #7) needle. In the cable pattern, you’ll want to reach 23 stitches and 24 rows in the same measurement. Accurate gauge ensures your hat fits perfectly.
