Notes

Cast on 96, knit ribbing for 7” (no fold up brim), then started decreases. Instead of ending with 12 stitches, I did a round of K2Tog to end up with 6. Might have been better to leave it at 12, since it looks a bit pointy.

Nice hat.

But I think I’ll rip out the top and knit 3 more inches to get a fold up brim (I have extra yarn).

Done, and stopped at 12 stitches. Looks better.
