Notes

• Ch 3 counts as 1 dc when worked at the beg of the row. This means you do not work into the st that falls beneath it.
• Except for the very last round of the hat, you will be working into the ch1sp that closes the hdc4tog-cl. In the final round of the hat you will be working into both the ch1sp that closes the cluster and the top of the cluster as well.
• Sl st does not count as a stitch.
• Using the yarn end you left at the beginning of the band, whipstitch the edges of the band together.
• Stitch Multiple: 6
