The ancient Chinese concept called Yin Yang is a belief in the existence of two complementary forces in the universe. One could not exist without the other, for each contains the essence of the other.
This hat is designed with a longer crown and, when knit with a soft yarn, will fit comfortably and slouch at the back of the head. A more fitted version with a ribbed cuff is included. Detailed instructions include a chart for the colorwork. 22 sts/4” will produce a Small/med Adult size (fits 22-23”), while 20 sts/4” will produce a Large Adult size hat (fits 24”). The fitted version is gauged at 20 sts/4” and sized for Kids thru Small Adult (fits 21-22”).
