This yarn makes the best baby hat ever. Why oh why did they discontinue this yarn?

Like the last two I made, I like to do these bottom up. I CO 177 stitches on size 5 needles with some white baby yarn so I can make the most of what I have left.

Seven garter rounds, one round of K2tog, two rounds even, one eyelet round, knit for 3.5” before decreases.

I made a 3 stitch I-cord, 30” long on size 2 needles to feed through the eyelets.
