Pattern

Tick steps as you go. Your progress is saved on this device.

01Cast on and body

  1. Cast on 66 stitches and join in the round.
  2. Work 40 rounds in stockinette (knit all stitches).
  3. Place markers every 11 stitches: you will have 6 wedges.

02Shaping the crown

  1. Round 42: Knit until the 10th stitch of each wedge, then knit 2 together (k2tog): 10th + 11th stitch. That is 6 decreases; 60 stitches remain.
  2. Round 43: Knit all stitches (no decreases).
  3. Round 44: Knit until the 9th stitch of each wedge, then k2tog: 9th + 10th stitch.
  4. Round 45: Knit all stitches.
  5. Round 46: Knit until the 8th stitch of each wedge, then k2tog.
  6. Round 47: Knit all stitches.
  7. Round 48: Knit until the 7th stitch of each wedge, then k2tog.
  8. Round 49: Knit all stitches.
  9. Continue this rhythm (1 round with 6 decreases, 1 round without decreases) until 6 stitches remain.

03Top

  1. Knit these 6 stitches in the round for 4 rounds.
  2. Close the top and weave in all ends.
