Starting with a provisional cast-on, it is worked in both directions and then worn with one side inside the other. **Skills required** Provisional cast-on Decreasing **Sizes and approximate yardage** Small – 15 inches around unstretched/20 inches around stretched – 380 yards Medium – 16.7 inches around unstretched/22 inches around stretched – 420 yards Large – 18.3 inches around unstretched/24 inches around stretched – 460 yards **Materials** Fingering-weight yarn in as many colors as you want – you may need a bit more yardage if you use lots of small amounts US 2/2.75 mm needles or size needed to obtain gauge in your preferred configuration for working small circumferences Stitch marker Measuring tape Tapestry needle for weaving in ends The Turkish cast-on as a provisional cast-on works well for this. Be sure to find an explanation as a cast-on for knitting in both directions rather than for a toe-up sock. (There is one [here][1].) Because of the double thickness this hat ‘wears’ a bit more snugly than other hats. [1]: https://www.remadebyhand.com/turkish-cast-on
