Most of the Hat is worked double stranded
Gauge for Hood: Double stranded with K (6.5mm) 5sts, 4rows= 2”

Materials you will need:
The yarn needs to be the same thickness as Caron One Pound or Red Heart Super Saver. I prefer to use Caron One Pound because it’s a “sturdy” yarn and holds the shape well. Red Heart Super Saver is also good. I don’t suggest using I Love This Yarn because it doesn’t hold the shape well.

Adult sizes Main Color: Worsted Weight(4), Caron One Pound, Evergreen= 370-400yds
Adult- Adult/Teen 2nd Color: Worsted Weight(4), Caron One Pound, Taupe= 25-78yds
Child sizes Main Color: Worsted Weight(4), Red Heart Super Saver, Pretty ‘N Pink= 265-310yds
