This hat can be made from any DK weight yarn, however, I love the twinkle of the sequins from the King Cole Galaxy yarn.
It is a lovely light weight hat, not too hot to wear on spring or autumn days.

******* Please note that there is an error on the pattern, you need to cast on 108 stitches NOT 110, then if you wish to knit the slouchie version, the increase round should read (K9,M1) to the end of the round*******

Requirements :

  • 1 50g ball of Galaxy yarn (175m), with some left over at the end.
  • 4mm 16 inch circular needles
  • 4.5mm 16 inch circular needles
  • possibly 4.5mm double pointed needles depending on how you like to decrease in the round.
