The Hipster Hat by PetiteKnit, in English

This paper copy pattern is in English.

The Hipster Hat is worked bottom up in a 2×2 rib stitch. The bottom has a folded edge of about 6 (6) 8 (8) cm [2¼ (2¼) 3¼ (3¼) inches] (you can do a double folded edge if you knit the hat extra-long, but bear in mind that this will require more yarn than suggested). The decreases at the top of the head are done by working 2 sts together on each side of two knit sts a total of 4 times across the round.

The Hipster Hat can be knit a bit long for it to get a little 窶徂ipster top窶
