I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE this pattern! Its sooo cute and love the drape in the Jeans yarn that i used in teal. PERFECT PATTERN to me.
I have made 2-3 of these hats-LOVE it!
Everything is coming out the same stitches as yours until the end of Row 17. I now have 90 stitches. Help!!
Hi! Are rounds 8 – 16 all 70 stitches around?
I dont understand rows 20-23. I know how to do FP and BP but have never done them in the round. Is there a video?
Hi! There is no video. They are worked the same in a row or in a round 🙂
Love this beanie…I only did 16 rows, last 2 rows skipped 2 to decrease.
I did singles to edge it for 2 rows
Adorable
Thank you!
