Northdale Hat

The Northdale Hat is a wee offshoot of my [Northdale sweater][1]. This is a quick and relatively easy knit being that it is in DK weight yarn and only uses 3 colors. For extra jauntiness stick a pom pom on it! **Size** 17 ¼ inch circumference at brim; 7 ¾ inches tall from brim to crown. **Needles** US 4/3.5mm 16-inch circular needle US 6/4mm 16-inch circular needle US 6/4mm set of dpn’s or long circular needle (if prefer using magic loop) **Yarn** DK weight yarn in the following amounts: 80 yards of MC, 65 yards of CC1 and 35 yards of CC2 (extra yardage of CC1 required if making a pom pom). Shown in Jamieson’s Double Knitting (100% Shetland; 82 yards/25g) Mooskit (MC), Atlantic (CC1) and Titanic (CC2) **Notions** Stitch markers Tapestry needle for weaving in ends **Gauge** 25 sts and 32 rnds = 4 inches in Ribbing pattern for brim on US 4/3.5mm needle 26 sts and 32 rnds = 4 inches in Fair Isle pattern on US 6/4mm needle [1]: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/northdale
