      Hi, I found this pattern and I like it very much. Although I do not understand everything: it is to knit everything and after the 19-30 cm ist one row knit and one purl? it is k it in the round? It will be great if you can answer me, also ig it is after 2 years. Thank you! Vanessa

        Ill try and remember! I know it was knit one row purl one row (on single pointed needles) then at the 20cm mark, dec k2tog, k2, k2tog etc on the knit side. Purl next row. Then, dec on final knit side k1, k2tog, k2 etc. Cut yarn, loop through sts and pull, then weave hat edges together!

        @Georgia: I think i must have misunderstood the dec because it was pointy at the end and not round. I have undo the half of it and will try again tomorrow. It is one dec (k2tog,k2,k2tog till the end) on the knit side and then purl every other row and then the nect knit is k1, k2tog, k2 till the end? sorry if O am bothering you.

        @Patricia Vanesa G: You only do the decrease instructions once! After the second decrease you’ve finished, so tie the yarn through the loops and pull to form the hat crown
