Notes

I made a Thorpe hat just before this for my friend, Salem, and decided to lightly follow the pattern to make my other friend’s Jayne hat. I think it worked out really well.

I used Cascade 220, double stranded, and a US 10.5 to make it nice and big and snug for my friend’s big man head.

Happy with the result. Great pattern and great yarn for the hat.
