Notes

Modifications:
Did 104 sts instead of 120
Size 3 for ribbing
Scaled up to size 5 for body of hat
Made it more of a beanie - start crown decreases at 6 3/4”. Slightly slouchy. Made this one a little bigger width/length than the rainbow hat.

It is interesting how the hat looks different depending on what color you start ribbing with. One is purple with teal checks, next is teal with purple checks.

Measurements
Ribbing Width unstretched: 8 3/4”
Ribbing Width stretched: 10”
Hat width: 10”
Length: 8”

Cast on second hat (hat 3) in this colorway startingwith teal./14/24 finished 3/16/24

Skipped duplicate knit rows 12 and 15. Did extra k2tog around for final row.

One gram yarn remaining!
