    Designer Notes
    Band of hat is worked flat and seamed in the back. Stitches are then picked up around the top and worked
    in the round. To aid in picking up stitches for the crown of the hat, work every edge stitch on the right side
    of hat as charted but slip the first stitch of each wsr to create the twist for the bottom edge of the hat.

    Stitches Used:
    RT = right twist. Skip the first stitch, k the 2nd stitch then k the first st and slip both sts from needle.
    LT = left twist. Sl first st onto cable needle and hold in front. K next st then k1 from cn.
    C3 over 3 left = Cable 6 Front. Sl 3 sts to cable needle and hold in front. K the next 3 sts then k3 from cn.
    C3 over 3 right = Cable 6 Back. Sl3 sts to cable needle and hold in back. K the next3 sts then k3 from cn.

    Abbreviations:
    CO: cast on
    cn: cable needle
    k: knit
    k2tog: knit 2 stitches together
    p: purl
    PM: place marker
    pu: pick up
    pwise: purlwise
    rep: repeat
    rnd: round
    rs(r): right side (row)
    sl: slip

    Directions

    Band:

    CO 26 leaving a tail long enough to seam the two ends together. Do not join.

    Set-up row: P. (This row will be used to make seaming easier)

    Begin Cable Pattern repeating rows 1-8 until piece measures 22” (or desired head circumference) ending
    with row 1 or 5.

    BO pwise/DO NOT cut yarn. One stitch remains. Place it on a holder (or locking stitch marker) while
    seaming so that it doesn't get “lost”.

    Using tail from CO and being careful to not twist, seam 2 ends together to create band.
    Place 1 st back onto needle and then pu 89 more sts around top edge of band (90).

    Note: If you change the band circumference you will need to adjust this number accordingly. You
    should be picking up approximately 3 stitches for every 4 rows along the top of the band. Crown
    shaping is based on 6 decrease sections so you should pick up a multiple of 6 then adjust the decrease
    instruction using your number. For example: if you pick up 96 stitches, then begin with K14, k2tog and
    continue in pattern. If you pick up 84 stitches then begin with K12, k2tog and continue in pattern.

    PM for beginning of round.
