Notes

Knit as per pattern except started the decreases at 6.5 inches from the cast-on edge. Hat measures about 22 inches around - loose-fitting on my 20-inch head.

Knit the brim in Sunstone, then added Boardwalk and Geranium. Used up the Boardwalk and swapped in the Orla just as I started the decreases.

Another great Helix hat!

84.2 yards out. Used the following:
Sunstone: 20.7 g, 39.3 yards
Boardwalk: 11.6 g, 20.6 yards
Geranium: 16.8 g, 18.3 yards
Orla: 3.4 g, 6 yards

Gifted to Teddy, Xmas 2023.
