Watch Cap
Lion Brand® Wool-Ease® Chunky
GAUGE: 14 sts +19 rows = 4 inches (10 cm) in St st (k on RS, p on WS) with
larger needles. 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.

| I have used this pattern several times, but did not use the Wool Ease Chunky. Before trying it with the chunky I tried it with two strands of worsted yarn. It too is huge. The other three hats were knit with just one strand of worsted weight yarn and all fit just fine. I think some adjustments have to be made for the pattern to work with Wool Ease Chunky. The pattern itself is great, but doesn't work with a heavy weight yarn.
