CABLEDHATFOR HUBBIE
This hat is one size fits most. It is worked from the bottom up. Yarn Requirements: 140 yards (130m) of sport weight. I used one skein Knit Picks Comfy in Planetarium. S size 4 (3.5mm) circular 16" long and US size 4 DPN for top of ha Additional Materials: Tapestry needle to weave in ends Stitch markers Gauge: 22 stitches x 34 rows = 4"(10cm) in ribbing. Finished Size: 22 inches (56cm) circumference x 7 inches (18cm) long Notes: - To increase the circumference of the hat, cast on and work 12 additional stitches. This will Increase the circumference by two (2) inches (5cm). - To decrease the circumference of the hat, cast on and work 12 fewer stitches. This will decrease the circumference by two (2) inches (5cm). - To increase the length of the hat work additional rounds of k2, p2 ribbing. Eight (8) additional round willincrease the length by one (1) inch (2.5cm). Or work additional repeats of chart A which will increase the length of the hat 1/3 inch (1 cm).
Pattern:
Cast on 120 stitches using long tail cast on. Place marker and join in the round taking care not to twist. Rounds 1-3: \* k2, p2 \* Repeat \* across round. Work rows 1-3 of chart A three (3) times:
Chart A: Repeat 10 times per round. Written Pattern: Round 1: \* c2f, p2, (k2, p2) twice \*. Repeat \* across round. Round 2: \* k2, p2, c2f, p2, k2, p2 \*. Repeat \* across round. Round 3: \* (k2, p2) twice, c2f, p2 \*. Repeat \* across round. Rounds 4-9: Repeat rounds 1-3 twice. Continue working in k2, p2 rib until the hat measures 5 inches (12.5cm). Begin decreases (Transfer to double point needles when there are too few stitches to comfortably work on circular needle): Round 1: \* k2, p2 \*. Repeat \* across round. (120 sts) Round 2: \* (k2, p2) twice, k2, p2tog \*. Repeat \* across round. (110 sts) Round 3: \* (k2, p2) twice, k2, p1 \*. Repeat \* across round. Round 4: \* k2, p2, k2, p2tog, k2, p1 \*. Repeat \* across round. (100 sts) Round 5: \* k2, p2, (k2, p1) twice \*. Repeat \* across round. Round 6: \* k2, p2tog, (k2, p1) twice \*. Repeat \* across round. (90 sts) Round 7: \* k2, p1 \*. Repeat \* across round. Round 8: \* (k2, p1) twice, ssk, p1 \*. Repeat \* across round. (80 sts) Round 9: \* (k2, pl) twice, kl, p1 \*. Repeat \* across round. Round 10: \* k2, p1, ssk, p1, k1, p1 \*. Repeat \* across round. (70 sts) Round 1l: \* k2, pl, (kl, pl) twice \*. Repeat \* across round. Round 12: \* ssk, p1, (kl, p1) twice \*. Repeat \* across round. (60 sts) Round 13: \* k1, p1 \*. Repeat \* across round. Round 14: \* (kl, p1) twice, ssk \*. Repeat \* across round. (50 sts) Round 15: \* (kl, pl) twice, kl \*. Repeat \* across round. Round 16: \*k1, p1, ssk, k1 \*. Repeat \* across round. (40 sts) Round 17: \* kl, p1, k2 \*. Repeat \* across round. Round 18: \* ssk, k2 \*. Repeat \* across round. (30 sts) Round 19: knit all stitches. Round 20: \* ssk, k1 \*. Repeat \* across round. (20 sts) Round 21: \* ssk \*. Repeat \* across round. (10 sts) Round 22: \* ssk \*. Repeat \* across round. (5 sts)
Finishing:
Cut the yarn and thread it through remaining stitches. Then weave in ends and place on the head of the lucky recipient.
