Hat with Heart

This is a free pattern for a hat/cap/beanie/toque with rapid decreases in the crown for a contemporary look. I have made this hat many, many times as donations to [The Ships Project][1]. Read about all of this on my blog, [www.nonsuchknits.blogspot.com][2]. The pattern is written for an average adult head, with instructions for knitting in the round, or flat with seaming. It's the perfect stash-buster project as you can use any worsted weight yarn, or even a DK yarn that has some loft or fluff, like alpaca. **Additional Sizes:** **Small Child** - CO 68 sts. **Child** - CO 76 sts. **Small Adult** - CO 80 sts.
