Finished Measurements: Small (Medium) Length: 20.5 (23) cm / 8 (9)” Circumference: 41 (46) cm / 16 (18)” - Ideal sizes for comfortable wear, ensuring a snug fit that will keep you warm and stylish.

Yarn Details: For this project, you will need The Fibre Company’s Acadia yarn, which consists of 60% merino wool, 20% baby alpaca, and 20% silk, offering both warmth and luxury. Each skein weighs 50 g and provides a generous 133 m / 145 yds. This pattern requires one skein in each chosen color: CC: Verbena & MC: Pinecone, for a harmonious blend.

Needles & Notions: You'll need 3.5 mm (US 4) & 4 mm (US 6) circular needles (40 cm / 16”), along with 4 mm (US 6) double-pointed needles (DPNs). Don’t forget to have a stitch marker and a darning needle on hand for finishing touches!

Gauge: Achieve the best results by ensuring you have a gauge of 26 stitches per 10 cm / 4” when using the linen stitch on 4 mm (US 6) needles, or adjust as necessary to match this gauge for a perfect fit.

Additional Notes: If you prefer the Magic Loop method, feel free to work the hat on longer circular needles for added convenience. This versatile pattern is suitable for knitters looking to experiment with both color blending and different knitting techniques, making it a delightful addition to your collection of knitting projects.
