Cute hat - but you have to be VERY careful to not go a single row past the state measurements or you WILL run out of yarn. I think this hat was originally designed with a 120g put-up, and now that they are doing 100g put-ups it is a race to the finish line. I had gone a couple rows past 6” and ran out mid-decreases, ripped back to exactly 6” and finished the whole thing with about 10” of yarn left. My stitch gauge was dead on, and they don’t give a row gauge to know if my row gauge was off.
