Hat

Cast on 84-90-96-102-108 sts with orange on double pointed needles size 3.5 mm / US 4.

P 1 round, then work in stockinette st. When the piece measures 6 cm / 2½’’, insert 1 marker (= rolling edge), now measure the piece from here and work according to diagram A.1.

When the piece measures 7-8-9-10-12 cm / 2¾”-3”-3½”-4”-4¾”, decrease 3-0-6-3-0 sts evenly = 81-90-90-99-108 sts.

Then insert 9-10-10-11-12 markers in the piece 9 sts apart. First st after the first marker = first st in A.2. Now work A.2, but continue with K and P as in A.1 in the orange section.

After A.2, work with forest green until finished - AT THE SAME TIME decrease every other round: 1 st on the right side of all markers until 9-10-10-11-12 sts remain on the needle.

Switch to double pointed needles size 2 mm and work 3 cm / 1’’ over these sts for the stem.

Pull yarn through the remaining sts and fasten.
