Tassel Fun Decorated Cap
Lion Brand® Homespun® - Incredible®
GAUGE: 14 sts + 20 rows = 4 inches [10 cm] in St st (k every rnd) 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.

| Tassel Fun Decorated Cap Reviewed by oneills on 2009-11-18 |

| This hat was fun to make and pretty easy except for the sewing up of the band. I had a hard time understanding that the band went on the inside as it looked like it was a hem folded on the outside. Looks great.
