Medallions Hat
Medallions Hat is a close-fitting beanie worked in the round and it features an interesting combination of interlocking cables and textured stitch patterns. Hat begins with an optional tubular cast on, the crown shaping is integrated into the pattern. Please note that the cable pattern is charted only.
Gauge
25 sts and 30 rounds = 10x10 cm/4”x4” in Medallions Cable Pattern knit in the round with needle A after blocking
Base gauge: 18 sts and 26 rounds = 10x10 cm/4”x4” in Stockinette Stitch knit in the round with needle A after blocking
Obtaining the correct gauge is not crucial, but any differences will affect the size of the finished hat.
