THE KNITONOMY LAUREL HAT

The hat is a top down knit. The cabling is both charted and written. Crown shaping rounds are written stitch by stitch.

Because of the cable repeats, the measurements grow rapidly between sizes. The pattern is written for one size. However, there are two gauge options: size 1 and size 2 to offer two finished sizes. They both follow the same instructions but the final measurements are different.
