Size:
Head circumference approx. 54 cm - 58 cm

Usage:
approx. 100 g Cl. 01 (rose mottled)

Needle size:
Needle 6.0 - 7.0

Pattern:
Collar pattern in the curve.: (Stitch number divisible by 2)
alternately knt. 1 S ri, 1 S le
garter right in Rd.:
1st Rd.: ri S, 2nd Rd.: le S
always rpt. 1st - 2nd Rd.
plain right in Rd.: knt. ri S
Pattern: (see knitting chart)
only each 2nd Rd. is shown, in the 1st Rd. and each Rd. in between, knt. ri S
always rpt. the 1st - 12th Rd..

Stitch test (garter right):
14 S x 25 R = 10 cm x 10 cm

Instructions:
The hat is knitted in a Rd.
Cast on 70 S, distribute over 4 needles of the needle set (3 x 18 S, 1 x 16 S) and knt. 5 cm (= 10 Rd.) in collar pattern. Then knt. Rd ri S, picking up 1 S after the 10th S and 4x after each 14th S. (= knt. 1 S ri interlaced from the cross stitch) (= 75 S). Now continue in the following stitch pattern (= 2nd pattern round of the knitting chart): * 4 S garter right, 1 S plain right, 4 S garter right, 6 S pattern (= 1 repeating pattern, see knitting chart), rpt. another 4 x from *.
At 18 cm total height (= 10 Rd. collar pattern and 34 Rd. in the pattern), prepare the drops as follows, in the Rd. knt. between the drops according to the pattern.
35. Rd.:
knt. together * 3 S ri, bind off 3 S ri (= drop 2 S ri tog, knt. 1 S ri tog., bind off the dropped S), 9 S ri, rpt. another 4 x from * (= 65 M)
37th Rd.: * 2 S ri, bind off knt. tog 3 S, 8 S ri, rpt. another 4 x from * (= 55 S)
39th Rd.: * 1 S ri, bind off knt. tog 3 S, 7 S ri, rpt. another 4 x from * (= 45 S)
41st Rd.: * 3 S ri, bind off knt. tog 6 S, rpt. another 4 x from * (= 35 S)
43rd Rd.: * 3 S ri knt. tog, taking the last S of the 4th needle as the 1st S, 4 S ri, rpt. another 4 x from * (= 25 S)
45th Rd.: * 3 S ri knt. tog, taking the last S of the 4th needle as the 1st S, 2 S ri, rpt. another 4 x from * (= 15 S)
46th Rd.: always knt. tog. 2 S, end with 1 S ri (= 8 S)
Pull the remaining 8 S together with the working thread.
