Crag

CONSTRUCTION

• The hat is worked circularly from the brim to the crown.

GAUGE

• 26½ stitches & 30 rounds = 4″ in Crag Chart pattern with Size A needle(s), after blocking

NEEDLES

Size A (for Main Fabric):

• One 16″ circular needle and one set of double-pointed needles (DPNs)* in size needed to obtain gauge listed
• Suggested Size: 5 mm (US 8)

Size B (for Ribbing):

• One 16″ circular needle*, three sizes smaller than Size A
• Suggested Size: 3¾ mm (US 5)

Size C (optional; for Tubular Cast On only):

• One 16″ circular needle*, two sizes smaller than Size B
• Suggested Size: 3¼ mm (US 3)

*32″ circular needle can be used instead of 16″ circular and DPNs if using the Magic Loop method for working small circumferences in the round.

Note: If you have adjusted the needle size to obtain the correct gauge, it may or may not be necessary to make a matching adjustment to the needle size used for Tubular Cast On due to variance in individual work. You may wish to test your chosen cast-on method on your swatch.
