Hat (make 1)
Using the thumb method and a set of 4 needles, cast on 48 sts ( then divide sts so there are 16 sts on each of three needles).
Making sure the cast on stitches are not twisted on the needles, make the needles into a triangular shape and use the 4th needle to work the stitches on the 1st needle. Leave the end of the cast on wool hanging, as this will mark the start of each round.
Work each round (all the stitches on the 3 needles) as follows:
Round 1: (k 1, p 1) to end of round.
At the end of the round you immediately start the next round by repeating round 1.
Repeat round 1 until the work measures 1-inch/2.5 cm from cast on edge, finishing at the end of a round.
