Notes

A very clear pattern that makes an adorable hat! Love it!

Okay, yes, it is cute as a slouch and that’s how I figured I’d wear it, but the sizing of it actually gives me a beanie-style hat that ISN’T TOO TIGHT FOR MY 23” HEAD. I love it so. I can’t wait to wear but since we are still in solid pool weather, I’m gonna have to wait a bit!

Note: When I made this hat, the Cascade Eco Wool was listed as bulky. Now it’s listed as aran. The Plymouth Taria is a tiny bit thicker, but I got the same gauge on the Eco Wool. So yeah, I can see how people say it isn’t bulky because it’s a little thinner than the Taria, but I had no problems treating it like a bulky. So my vote is light bulky.
