Notes

I had slightly under the 60 yards, but wanted to see if I could make this cute hat.

First I knit to 6” before starting the decreases, knit to end and clearly had enough to knit at least one more row. So I ripped back to just before decreases, knit to 6-1/2”, and completed the hat.

I still had 5 grams left, but at 8”, hat was perfect size. I called it good.

I had an Organic Elements button in my stash that went perfectly with the rag wool look.
