Somewhere in my memory …

Ever admired this iconic hat? Wanted one for your own? I’ve put in the work searching images and counting stitches so that now you can make one for yourself or the Kevin McCallister admirer in your life.

This hat is written for one size and is entirely dependent on this stitch count, however by going up or down a needle size, you can adjust the circumference.

This pattern uses colorwork charts without accompanying written chart instructions.
