HAT:
The piece is worked in the round with short circular needle, bottom up. Change to double pointed needles when necessary.

The next round is worked as follows: * A.1 (= 30-34 stitches), purl 2 *, repeat from *-* a total of 4 times. Continue the rib in this way and decrease as shown in A.1 – AT THE SAME TIME on the last row of A.1 purl together the 2 purl stitches between each A.1 = 20-20 stitches left on the needles. Knit 1 row where all stitches are knitted together 2 and 2 = 10-10 stitches. Cut the strand, pull it through the remaining stitches, tighten and fasten well. The hat measures approx. 31-33 cm from the top down. Turn up an edge of approx. 5-7 cm at the bottom of the hat.
