Bree- Redesigned






Bree
By Brittany Wilson

In 2009 I designed this fun hat with a bow, and in 2013 I decided to revamp it and make some improvements. It's knit in a new yarn, has better sizing information, and more shaping for a fun bow detail.

MATERIALS
Needles:
1 US #5/3.75mm 16” circular needles
1 set US #5/3.75mm double pointed needles

Notions:
- Tapestry needle
- 1 stitch marker

Yarn:
Fleece Artist Peter Rabbit [70% angora, 20% nylon, 10% wool; 275yd/251m per 50g skein] 1 skein; color: Stone

GAUGE
25 sts/28 rows = 4" in stockinette stitch

SIZING
Height: 7-8”
Width at Brim: 17.5-19”
To Fit Head Circumference: 20” (22)”

PATTERN NOTES
W&T- Use your preferred Wrap and Turn method. I like the Shadow Wrap technique shown on the Soctopus website: http://www.socktopus.co.uk/2011/02/short-rows-shadow-wraps/
