Notes

Why didn’t I write down which size I made for my silk one?! I’m going with Large this time (based on other 4-ply hats I’ve made), and hoping it’s not too big. Can’t find my notes or my original print-out of the pattern anywhere.

Yarn is all hand-spun and naturally dyed - but not by me!

Aargh, it’s too big! Should have gone with Medium. Next time…

Changes to the pattern: purled 7 rows and knit 5, to make each stripe wider. (I had 7 colours of yarn plus the pink, and didn’t want to do 10 repeats.) Also worked 2 extra rows in the decrease section -an extra plain row, and an extra k2tog all round.
