With this matching hat and collar, you will look like you just stepped out from the Irish countryside. The flared collar features the same 6-stitch cable, picot bottom edging, chevron eyelet design and top ribbing. Both pieces are worked in the round.

Level: Intermediate (knowledge of basic cables, increasing and decreasing and eyelets recommended)

Hat Materials:
2-50 g balls Crystal Palace Merino 5 #5212 “lichen”
16” Circular Needles: Size 5 and 9
Double-Pointed Needles: Size 9
Stitch marker
Yarn needle

Hat is worked in the round. Begin with circular needles; switch to DPNs for crown decreases.

Note: If you make both the hat and neckwarmer you will only need three 50 g balls of Crystal Palace Merino 5. Hat will not use all of two balls.
