Roll Brim Hat

I just finished knitting a large adult roll brim hat … the colour is vine (dark purple). It’s the first time I made this pattern and it’s easy to make.

Using a 5mm circular needle and 4 weight yarn, I cast on 102 stitches. Join and work in the round, placing a marker at the beginning of round. 

Work in stockinette stitch (so knit every round) for 6 inches. 

 Shape Crown

• Round 1: *k15, k2tog*, repeat to the end
• Round 2: knit 
• Round 3: *k14, k2tog*, repeat to the end
• Round 4: knit 
• Round 5: *k13, k2tog*, repeat to the end 
• Round 6: knit 
• Continue like this until 48 stitches remain, then decrease every round until 6 stitches remain
• Cut yarn, leaving a long tail. Thread yarn through remaining stitches and pull to gather. Secure end. Weave in ends.
