Step 1
Instructions:
(Note: You will start by knitting a flat garter stitch rectangle that will be joined for knitting in the round.)
Cast on 93 stitches.
Work in garter stitch for 2 inches, ending with a wrong side row.
(RS): Bind off 13 sts (80 sts remain). Knit to end of row. DO NOT TURN. You will now join for knitting in the round.
Place marker to mark the beginning of the round and join by knitting the first stitch after the bound off section.
Continue knitting each round until the hat measures 5 inches from cast on edge.
Crown Shaping (Transfer stitches to DPNs when the circumference is too small to knit with the circular needles.).

Weave in ends.
