Knitted hat

I knitted a man's family hat. I used Caron Anniversary Cake and the colour is Pebbled Path. 

I found the pattern here and it was an easy pattern. 

I adjusted the pattern so I could knit it on circular needles and avoid having to sew the seam at the end and didn't do a pompom.

Cast on 60 stitches. 

• 1st row: *K1. P1*. Repeat to end of row.
• Repeat this row 7 more times.

Proceed in stocking stitch until work from beg measures 6 inches/15 cm.

Shape crown: 

• 1st row: *K2tog. K2*. Repeat to end of row.
• 2nd row: Knit.
• 3rd row: Knit.
• 4th row: Knit.
• 5th row: *K2tog. K1*. Repeat to end of row.
• 6th row: Knit.
• 7th row: Knit.
• 8th row: Knit.
• 9th row: K2tog. Repeat to end of row.
• 10th row: *K2tog. Repeat to end of row.

Break yarn, leaving a long end. Thread end through remaining stitches. Draw up and fasten securely.
