Stitch Patterns
Double Moss Stitch: Stockinette Stitch in the round:
Row 1: *k1 p1* to end of row. Knit every round.
Row 2: *k1 p1* to end of row.
Row 3: *p1 k1* to end of row.
Row 4: *p1 k1* to end of row.

Directions:
Moss Stitch Band
Cast on 56 stitches, do not join in the round. Work in Double Moss Stitch for 3. Either join in the round and place marker
for beginning of round working using magic loop method, or transfer to four double pointed needles for working in the round.

Short Row Shaping


You should have 56 stitches joined in the round. Place four more markers (we'll call them M1, M2, M3 and M4) as follows:
Place M1 after stitch 17, M2 after stitch 21, M3 after stitch 35 and M4 after stitch 39. Knit to one stitch before M4, w&t. Purl
to one stitch before M1, w&t. Knit to one stitch before M3, w&t. Purl to one stitch before M2, w&t.

Crown
Work in stockinette stitch in the round. In the first round after the short row shaping, work wraps together with wrapped
stitches. You can remove M1, M2, M3 and M4 after you've done this. Continue working in stockinette until the stockinette
section measures 3, measuring at the beginning of the round.

Now decrease as follows:

Decrease round 1: *k6 k2tog* to end of round.

Decrease round 2: knit.

Decrease round 3: *k5 k2tog* to end of round.

Decrease round 4: knit.

Decrease round 5 *k4 k2tog* to end of round.

Decrease round 6: knit.

Decrease round 7: *k3 k2tog* to end of round.

Decrease round 8: *k2 k2tog* to end of round.

Decrease round 9: *k1 k2tog* to end of round.

Decrease round 10: *k2tog* to end of round.

You should have 7 stitches left. Cut the yarn, leaving a 6 tail. Thread the long tail onto a needle, and slip the 7 remaining
stitches onto the thread. Pull tight and sew over the little hole at the top a few times.

Finishing
Starting from where you joined in the round, dc right round the bottom edge of the hat. Make up a 3 pompom and sew to
the top of the hat. Weave in any loose ends and you're done!
