Snowman Hat

Lion Brand® Holiday Homespun® - Vanna's Choice®

GAUGE:

15 sts = 4 in. (10 cm) in St st (k on RS, p on WS) with size 8 (5 mm) needles and A. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

NOTES:

Embellishments are crocheted.

Snowman Hat Reviewed by Susan Brunson on 2010-02-05 *****
This was a quick project and really cute. I decided to add a fluffy white thread to my cotton yarn. It was made for a 3 year old and I chose the larger size. It fit nicely. The only thing I would change would be to knit it on circular needles to prevent the back seam.
