Cotton Cover is an easy adult hat that knits up quickly. Airy and soft, this unisex cap slips on lightly, when just a little cover is needed. One skein of the beautiful and organic BC Garn Alba yarn is all that is needed.

Yarn: BC Garn Alba 100% organic cotton, 1 skein. Alba is 100% organic cotton, GOT certified. Sample is in EB 27 Gold, and edged in EB 24 Marine. The hat can be made in a single color, or 5 grams of left over yarn can be used for a dramatic edge.

Gauge: 26 stitches by 32 rows in 4” of stockinette stitch after blocking

Needle A: 16” circular and set of double points to achieve gauge (size 4 US). If you prefer Magic Loop, a 31” circular instead.
Needle B: 16” circular one size smaller than needle A (size 3 US)

Finished size: 18 - 20” diameter and 7.5” in height
Includes instructions for a medium 18” diameter and the 20” diameter hat.
