Knitted Kakano Hat

As a beginning knitter, I was worried about attempting this pattern.  So I was especially glad the pattern was free.  (Buying something to find out it is way above your skill level is frustrating!)  I was excited when I was able to easily complete this fantastic hat easily.  This hat was made for my mom for Christmas.

Pattern
Kakano Hat

Yarn

Cloudborn Fibers Superwash Merino Worsted Twist 
Oatmeal Heather

Needle

US 5 (3.75mm)
US 6 (4.0mm)

Notes

CO 112 stitches & worked Twisted Ribbing with Size 5 needles.

Worked main body with Size 6 needles. I didn’t have any Size 6 Double Pointed Needles so I finished the top with Size 5.

Repeated Body 5 times instead of 4.

Washed on gentle cycle & dried hat and it is SO soft.
