Kallio is a thin hat that even suits the Finnish summer. The black speckles in the dark grey yarn remind of granite, while the urban style comes straight from Kallio, the coolest district in Helsinki. You can fold the edge twice or three times - you choose!

WHAT YOU NEED

YARN: 70 (75) g of fingering weight sock yarn (75 % merino wool, 25 % nylon - approx. 420 m / 460 yds / 100 g). Sock yarn is preferred just because the hat won’t get as loose as when using for example single merino yarn. The sample is made of Lystig Sock in colour November Rain.
NEEDLES: 2.25 mm (US1) circular needle 40 cm / 16” and DPNs or longer 2.25 mm (US1) circular needle for magic loop.
NOTIONS: 6 removable st markers (1 different for BOR).
GAUGE: 46 sts x 40 rnds = 10 cm / 4” of ribbing without stretching.
