With 200 yards (182 meters) per 100g skein, you will need approximately 115 (140, 160, 185) yards for your slouchy hat. Please keep in mind that yardage requirements may vary based on your gauge, so be sure to check your tension before you begin. #### Recommended Needles To get started, grab your **Size US 8 (5.0mm)** 16-inch circular needles and a set of double-pointed needles (dpns). You’ll also need **US 6 (4.0mm)** 16-inch circular needles. Adjust needle sizes as necessary to achieve the correct gauge. #### Additional Notions Don't forget to have a tapestry needle handy for weaving in those pesky ends after you complete your delightful hat. #### Gauge Information To ensure your hat turns out just right, aim for a gauge of 16 stitches and 24 rows equals 4 inches in Purl Bump on the larger needles. For the smaller needles, the gauge should be 19 stitches and 24 rows equals 4 inches in 1x1 Rib (slightly stretched). #### Join the Community Have questions or looking for camaraderie as you knit?
