GAUGE
4”x4” - US8 (5mm) 20 stitches by 24 rows.
The overall measurements of the piece: 6.5” wide by 8.5” tall.  This hat really stretches so do not be afraid of the narrow measurement. I do not feel this hat needs to be blocked unless you need to get additional width or length on your measurements.  The squish is real with this one!

DIFFICULTY
This pattern is best suited for Advanced Knitters. Knowledge of working in the round, cables, and decreasing is required.
