Shown here in Cascade 220.<br />Size 8 US 16" circular needle, and size 8 set of 4 or 5 dpns. (or whatever size gives you gauge)<br />Tapestry needle for sewing in ends<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Gauge: </span>4 sts and 6 rows/inch in the stockinette portions. Row gauge isn't that important, though.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Border:</span><br />Cast on 71 stitches in whichever method you prefer. I used long-tail.<br />Join for working in the round, being careful not to twist.<br />Row 1: (k1,p1) to last st, k1.<br />Row 2: (p1,k1) to last st, p1.<br /><br />Rep. these two rows four more times, or until desired border length (hat as shown has 6 rows in border--I have a short head).<br /><br />Next row: K2tog, k around. 70 stitches remaining.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Lace pattern:</span><br />Row 1: (k5, k2tog, yo, p5, k2tog, yo). Repeat three times more.<br />Row 2: Knit even.<br />Row 3: (k4, k2tog, yo, k1). Repeat six times more.<br />Row 4: Knit even.<br />Row 5. (k3, k2tog, yo, k2). Repeat six times more.<br />Row 6: Knit even.<br />Row 7: (k2, k2tog, yo, k3). Repeat six times more.<br />Row 8: Knit even.<br />Row 9: (k1, k2tog, yo, k4). Repeat six times more.<br />Row 10: Knit even.<br />Row 11: (k2tog, yo, k5). Repeat six times more.<br />Row 12: Knit even to last stitch. K2tog with first stitch of next row.<br />Row 13: (yo, k5, k2tog). Repeat six times more. K last stitch.<br />Row 14: Knit even.<br /><br />These fourteen rows make up the stitch pattern. Repeat twice more or until desired length to crown. <span style="font-weight: bold;">NOTE:</span> I have a rather short-ish head and fine hair, so most hats are too long on me when they're supposed to be fitted. For the hat in the photo I only worked two and a half repeats. But three should be right for normal-sized heads.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Decreases (begin on row 1):</span><br />Row 1: (k3, k2tog, yo, k2tog, p3, k2tog, yo, k2tog). Rep three times more.<br />Row 2: Knit even.<br />Row 3: (k3, k2tog, yo, k1). Rep six times more.<br />Row 4: Knit even.<br />Row 5: (k1, k2tog, yo, k2tog, k1). Rep six times more.<br />Row 6: Knit even.<br />Row 7: (k2, k2tog, yo, k1).<br />Row 8: Knit even.<br />Row 9: (k2tog, yo, k2tog). Rep six more times.<br />Row 10: Knit even.<br />Row 11: (k3tog, yo). Rep six more times.<br />Row 12: Knit even.<br />Row 13: k2tog around.<br /><br />Cut yarn, leaving a 12" tail. Using tapestry needle, thread yarn through all loops. Pull tight and weave in end on reverse side.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b100/daphnerunning/CIMG0340.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 800px; height: 533px;" src="http://i17.photobucket.com/albums/b100/daphnerunning/CIMG0340.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br />Please let me know if you have any questions!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;">© Corinna Rogers 2009.
