Boyfriend Watch Cap

Knit this cozy, deeply cuffed cap for him. Then borrow it back—if you can! It’s handsome worn turned up for traditional sailor style, but we love it uncuffed and slouchy, too. Worked in a heavy worsted-weight yarn, this cap is a quick knit, which is great because you’re bound to be asked for more. FINISHED SIZE One size: To fit 20–23"/51–58cm head. Approx. 18"/46cm around ribbing, not stretched. YARN 2 skeins Rowan Felted Tweed Aran (95 yds/87m each). Or approx. 190 yds/174m of an equivalent heavy worsted-weight yarn. Shown on him in Color 728; shown on her in Color 734. NEEDLES & NOTIONS US 8 (5mm) 16"/40cm circular and double-point needles, or size to obtain gauge. US 7 (4.5mm) 16"/40cm circular, or one size smaller than gauge needle. 3 stitch markers (1 in a different color to designate beginning of round). Darning needle to finish.
