Please note that there are no instructions for other sizes.

The hat is made in one piece using turning rows, starting from the side. The final piece is of the rectangular shape with a narrowing at one end (at the top of the hat). You shall gradually work on the hat’s wedges without breaking thread. At the end you will sew the starting and the final rows using the tapestry needle.
