Notes

This is a very nice pattern! The bottom band takes a bit of concentration, but isn’t difficult. If I make it again I think I would knit 4 inches beyond the colourwork before starting the crown decreases, rather than just 3 inches.

The two unknown colours of the Jamieson & Smith yarn are leftovers from a sweater I knit for my granddaughter, and I no longer have the ball bands. They are both light heather colours.

More photos once it has been washed and blocked!

Edited to say I’ve added more pictures, and also to say the hat actually washed and blocked to the perfect fit, so I take back what I said about knitting the next one for 4 inches past the colourwork. :-)
