I got inspiration for this hat from the Sour Patch sour apple. I love to eat them and I love the color… so I made a hat like it.
Material:
I, 7 oz ball of worsted weight yarn ( I used Red Heart)
4 Ring stitch markers (I wrapped a piece of scrap yarn around one so I would know which one was for the beginning of the row)
1, size 7 16inch circular needle( I used 24 inch but 16inch will be more comfortable)
4, size 8 DPN’s
**ABBREVIATIONS**
CO= cast on
STS= stitches
K= knit
P= purl
BO= bind off
SSK= slip, slip, knit (slip 2 onto right needle then knit them together)
K2tog= knit 2 together
**Size**
Woman small-medium: Approx. 12 inches from top to bottom. When folded 8 inches.
**Pattern**
CO 80 sts(crochet chain cast on)
Place marker(with scrap yarn tied on) at beginning of row
Rows 1-36(6inches):2×2 ribbing
Rows 37-67(4 1/4 inches):Knit (**note** stockinette stitch on circular is just knitting all the rows)
Row 68: k20, place ring marker, k20 place ring marker, k20, place ring marker, k20
Row 69: *k2tog, knit within 2 sts of next marker then ssk , slip marker k2tog < repeat until you get to the end of the row. you will end with ssk.
Row 70: knit
Repeat rows 69 & 70 until you have 9 sts.
Cut yarn and thread through rem loops using tapestry needle. Pull tight and seam in the ends.
