Seed Stitch Hat

Lion Brand® Cotton-Ease®

GAUGE:

20 sts = about 4 in. (10 cm) in Seed Stitch. 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.

Seed Stitch Hat Reviewed by Ciara Robinson on 2013-01-26 *****
I LOVE this hat. I've made two now because it's just too great to only have in one color. It's quick, easy, and very cute. I always end up accidentally making it an extra two inches longer because I just get going on the seed stitch and don't stop! Luckily, this just gives it even more of that slouchy hat look.
