NOTE: As this hat is knitted in rib it requires a smaller needle to knit this structure in DK (US Light worsted) yarns. This smaller needle size will give you a neat rib with elasticity and memory (it will bounce back).

If you are printing out this pattern, just print the size you are knitting along with the ‘All sizes’ pages to save on paper and ink. All pages are clearly numbered and indexed.
